How they lined up

Jurgen Klopp once again went with Fabinho as Liverpool's holding midfielder, allowing Jordan Henderson to continue in a more advanced role. Maurizio Sarri retained faith in Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Callum Hudson-Odoi, deciding to use Eden Hazard in a central role.

Average positions

Naby Keita got forward well, forming a threatening trio with Andrew Robertson and Sadio Mane on Liverpool's left flank. Hazard continued to drift to the left for Chelsea and that looked the visitors best outlet with Hudson-Odoi appearing isolated on the other wing.
