LONDON – Chelsea have a difficult task when they have to host defending champion Liverpool on matchday two of the 2020-2021 Premier League. Because, in the game, the team nicknamed the Blues will lose four of its players.
Chelsea is the club most actively buying players in the 2020 summer transfer market. So far, they have brought in Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Malang Sarr, Thiago Silva and Kai Havertz.
However, from these names, only Werner and Havertz have made their debut as Chelsea players. Both started when Chelsea played their first match of the season in the Premier League against Brighton & Hove Albion.

In the match, The Blues won 3-1, but Werner struggled with his knee. Because, Werner had a clash with Brighton goalkeeper Mat Ryan.
After the incident, Werner’s right knee was compressed with an ice pack. However, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard confirmed that Werner was fine and could compete in the game against Liverpool.
It’s just that Lampard still can’t play Chilwell, Ziyech and Thiago Silva. Also, Christian Pulisic is not 100 percent fit either, so Lampard can’t face him in the game against the Reds.
