Chelsea vs. Liverpool Betting: Goals to rain

After sealing their place in the Champions League final, Liverpool will be aiming to wrap up qualification for next year’s competition when they take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp’s men are currently six points ahead of their fifth-placed opponents, who have an extra game to play before the Premier League season is over.
Having won their last two league matches at this ground, they are available at 3.30 with Fortebet to make sure of their place in the top four with another victory here.
However, the Blues come into this match on the back of a four-game winning streak, and are 2.25 favourites to stay in the hunt for a Champions League place by coming out on top in this one.
Six of the last eight encounters between these sides have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 3.60 on them cancelling each other out yet again.

Fragile defences
While it may have sparked jubilation among the travelling supporters looking forward to a first Champions League final in over a decade, Wednesday’s 4-2 second leg defeat against Roma should also offer some encouragement for Antonio Conte.
The Italian manager will certainly back his side to score against a team whose defensive fragility was exposed by four goals conceded, and who will be feeling jaded after another action-packed away trip.
However, having kept just one clean sheet in 11 league fixtures themselves, Conte’s men are also likely to struggle against their guests’ formidable forward line.

Prediction
All in all, odds of 1.75 are well worth backing on over 2.5 goals being scored at Stamford Bridge. You can open an online betting account with Fortebet here.
