2015 EPL: Chelsea V Liverpool Betting Tip

The English Premier League (EPL) will witness an interesting match this weekend as Chelsea host Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 31st October which we take a look at with another soccer betting tip.

The hosts are in the midst of some worrying run of results and after ten games are in 15th position with 11 points. Liverpool are slightly better in 9th position and have 14 points. Not their usual or ideal positions but these two clubs are in troubles of their own.

Most of the attention for the hosts will be on Jose Mourinho. The beleaguered Blues’ manager is under constant pressure to get the season back on track. His side has won just once in the last eight matches. The mid-week loss in Capital One Cup to Stoke City would have added to the pressure.

Some reports point that Mourinho could be sacked in the event of another loss. This subplot would definitely add spice to this encounter. Diego Costa was injured in the loss to Stoke and could be a significant absence for the hosts. Equally worrying for Mourinho is the continued loss of form of Eden Hazard.

The troubles of Chelsea aren’t a comforting factor to Liverpool. The arrival of Jurgen Klopp after the depths of Brendan Rodgers reign lifted the mood at Liverpool. After three draws, Klopp saw his revolution start in the right earnest with a victory in Capital One Cup over Bournemouth.

Klopp likes to throttle opposition defence with high pressing game and that could prove his benefactor against Chelsea. The back four of Chelsea is already running ragged and this could prove to be a great chance for Klopp and Liverpool.

Any game between these two sides is always interesting but the subplots make this a must-watch over the weekend. With Mourinho on the ropes, it is easy to put money on a Liverpool win.

But, count Chelsea out at Stamford Bridge (in spite of their record this season) at your own peril. In the end, it could be an interesting draw!
