Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp look to keep their unbeaten form Saturday when they visit Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:45 a.m. Eastern time, and fans in the US can watch on NBC Sports. International fans can find their broadcast here.
The Reds haven’t lost since September 12th, but have only won twice during that span. That would sound good for Chelsea, who are struggling through their worst form in recent years. Chelsea has won just one of their last seven games in all competitions, and have lost six of their last 12 Premier League matches.
While both teams aren’t at their usual place in the table, it’s not too late for them to climb the standings. For Liverpool it starts with Christian Benteke, will return from injury Saturday. Benteke has three goals in seven games for the Reds, and could be the difference maker against a Chelsea team that has surrendered the third-most goals in EPL.
