With only three games left to play in the Premier League this season, Chelsea will need to be positive as they take on Liverpool during their visit to Merseyside. A defeat could even demote them to 12th in the table.
As a result, Calum McFarlane cannot solely concentrate on the upcoming FA Cup final against Manchester City and field a second-string side against Liverpool. Recent injury boosts could also be the key to their struggles during the final few games left to play this season, but they have new ones to be worried about.
Liverpool will look to bounce back against a struggling Chelsea side following their defeat to Manchester United last weekend. And going by their current form, a turnaround against the Reds could be tough for McFarlane’s side.
The fans will definitely keep an eye on the high-octane match set to take place at Anfield and hope it is the beginning of a turnaround for the Blues.
When does Liverpool vs Chelsea start?
The crucial game will take place at Anfield, home of Liverpool at 7:30 am ET, 12:30 pm BST and 5 pm IST on Saturday, May 9th 2026.

As things stand, it would need a minor miracle for the Blues to win at Anfield tomorrow, and a loss against Liverpool would be their 7th consecutive defeat in the Premier League. It might very well be the lowest point in club history.
