Raheem Sterling would be eager to impress against his old club. He will be instructed to get in behind the opposition backline at every chance he gets.

Both Thiago Silva and Levi Colwill need to be at the top of their game if they are to keep the Liverpool attackers at bay during the 90 minutes.

Pochettino would rely on Enzo Fernandez to have a good game in both halves so that Chelsea can collect all three points this weekend.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister will have to carry most of the creative burden for the Merseyside club this Sunday.
