Sunday’s game at Stamford Bridge sees Chelsea host Liverpool, in what will remarkably be the thirty-third time the sides have faced each other in the last eight seasons.

The sides last met at Anfield back in May, Liverpool running out 4-1 winners three days after being defeated by Chelsea at Wembley in the FA Cup final.

The Reds also ran out winners in the corresponding fixture twelve months ago, as well as coming out on top in the League Cup quarter final at Stamford Bridge.

Glen Johnson, who scored the winner in the league fixture in West London last term, may return after recovering from a hamstring injury, while keeper Pepe Reina may also be recalled.

Brendan Rogers is also likely to bring back several first team players who were rested in Thursday’s 1-0 Europa League defeat to Anzhi Makhachkala, including top scorer Luis Suarez, who is 8.5 (15/2) with a variety of bookmakers to get the first goal of the game.

Liverpool are priced at 4.0 (3/1) for the win with most firms, with Chelsea odds on at a best price of 1.95 (19/20). Bet Victor have the draw available at 3.8 (14/5).

Chelsea go in to Sunday’s match on the back of their dramatic 3-2 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on Wednesday evening.

Roberto Di Matteo has Captain John Terry available following his four match suspension, with Juan Mata and David Luiz also in contention following their respective injuries though Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard remain side-lined.

Fernando Torres is set to lead the line against his old club, and the Spaniard is the 7.5 (15/2) favourite to open the scoring, and 8.0 (7/1) to be named man of the match.

Regardless of who gets their name on the score sheet, this fixture usually guarantees goals, so you might be tempted to take advantage of Bet 365’s offer of 5.0 (4/1) for there to be five or more in the game, though with Chelsea arguably having the edge, you could plump for the hosts scoring at least four times themselves at a best price of 9.0 (8/1) with Coral.
