Liverpool and domestic football are back in action this weekend as the Reds prepare to face Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday. Arne Slot, Liverpool’s manager, will be holding a press conference this morning to discuss the upcoming match. Slot has had a successful start to his tenure at Liverpool, winning six out of seven Premier League matches and leading his team to the top of the table.
There are some key players who have been sidelined recently, including Federico Chiesa and Harvey Elliott. Chiesa has missed the last two games, while Elliott has been out for the past five weeks. However, there is hope that Elliott will make his return against Chelsea. In addition, Wataru Endo and Alisson Becker are also dealing with injuries. Endo missed Japan’s midweek match due to illness, while Alisson is expected to be out until after the next international break.
There is also ongoing speculation surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah, with rumors linking them to other clubs. Contract questions may be raised during the press conference, as all three players are nearing the end of their current deals with Liverpool.
Our chief Liverpool correspondent, Paul Gorst, will be at the AXA Training Centre to provide live updates from Slot’s press conference, which is scheduled to start at 9am.
In terms of Chelsea, manager Enzo Maresca will be without two key players due to suspension. The injury situation at Chelsea seems to be less severe compared to Liverpool’s.
Overall, Arne Slot is expected to face questions about team news and injury updates during the press conference. Despite his impressive start as Liverpool’s manager, Slot may still have some challenges to address ahead of the match against Chelsea. Stay tuned for more updates as we cover Arne Slot’s press conference and preview of the Liverpool vs. Chelsea game this Sunday.
