Why bet on Liverpool?
Arne Slot’s Liverpool is doing very well. With 18 points, they are leaders of the Premier League after six wins and one defeat, which was a surprise as they lost 0-1 at home to Nottingham Forest.
That has been one of only two goals conceded (the other scored by Wolves), making them the best defense in the league. However, Alisson was injured in the last game and will be out for more than a month, so Caoimhin Kelleher will be the starting goalkeeper.
But speaking precisely about the last games, they barely managed to beat Wolves 1-2 and Crystal Palace 0-1, two teams in the relegation zone, which should not give them much trouble. However, they have won and already boast three wins in a row in the Premier League, two more in the Champions League and another in the EFL Cup.
Among the outstanding players, we must highlight Mohamed Salah, who has returned to his best level and has four goals and four assists, as well as Luis Diaz, who has had a phenomenal start to the season with five goals and two assists.
Why bet on Chelsea?
Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea is looking better than last season. With 14 points, they are in fourth position. They lost the first game against Manchester City (0-2) but then won four and drew two, so they are unbeaten in six matches and have won all three away games they have played.
As well as the Reds, Nottingham Forest also complicated the Blues, drawing 1-1 in London despite being a man down since the 78th minute and with an extra 13 minutes.
Their 16 goals made them the second-best attack in the tournament, only behind Manchester City’s 17. Cole Palmer has been the standout player in this area with six goals, four of them scored against Brighton. He also has five assists.
Likewise, it is important to highlight the offensive power of Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson, each with four goals, plus the Senegalese striker has three assists. For his part, Jadon Sancho is having a good start with Chelsea, getting three assists in four games.
The team’s only injured player is defender Reece James.
