Every time you think Liverpool or Chelsea have finally figured it out in 2022-23, and they’re gonna get it right the rest of the way…they fall back right back down to disappointing/inferior form.
So Lord only knows how they can both find a way to let their fans down on Tuesday night. Obviously, the biggest story line here for this clash is the Chelsea managerial situation.
