Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has raved about Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea in The Liverpool Echo ahead of the Premier League game at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea will take on Liverpool at Stamford Bridge in London in the Premier League on Sunday.

Both Liverpool and Chelsea are aiming to win the Premier League title this season.

And Liverpool manager Klopp is well aware of the threat that Chelsea pose.

Klopp told The Liverpool Echo about Chelsea: “The only chance to catch anyone is to win football games.

“It’s not so easy as we play Chelsea a proper football team and might have similar issues as we have. You don’t win at Stamford Bridge with an average performance.

“We have to make sure we’re really on it again and I expect a really strong Chelsea. They have a proper football team. Leicester gave us a good example that it can be intense. We will put a proper shift in.”

Premier League title race

In our opinion, the Premier League game between Tuchel’s Chelsea and Klopp’s Liverpool is going to be huge in terms of the title race.

Manchester City are eight points clear at the top of the Premier League table at the moment.

In our view, there is simply no room for error now for Chelsea or Klopp’s team..

Neither Chelsea nor Liverpool can afford to drops points now.

Even at the halfway point of the season.

Which is why we think that Sunday’s game between the Blues and the Reds is going to be massive.

Chelsea are not in great form at the moment, while Liverpool are conceding more goals than they should.
