London –
Chelsea will face Liverpool in continued Premier League. what Romelu Lukaku will be absent due to punishment Thomas Tuchel?
Chelsea and Liverpool will fight for second place Premier League standings later tonight. The difference between the two points is now thin.
Chelsea is currently in second place with 42 points from 20 matches. While Liverpool are in third place with 41 points, but have only played 19 times.
No doubt, the Chelsea vs Liverpool match at Stamford Bridge on Sunday (2/1/2022) will allow both teams to secure second place if they win. Especially Chelsea, who needed a win to boost their confidence in the midst of a bad run.
However, the host camp is being bothered by internal problems. His striker, Romelu Lukaku, admits he is not happy in London.
Lukaku, who recently arrived from Inter Milan to Chelsea in the transfer market last summer, admitted not happy at this time. The Blues’ style of play is different than at Inter is the reason.
Lukaku said this in an interview with Sky Sports. That comment also angered Thomas Tuchel.
The German manager said Lukaku’s comments only made noise. According to Marca, there is a chance that Lukaku will be substituted by Tuchel in the match Chelsea vs Liverpool.
Lukaku himself is also struggling at Chelsea. He has only scored 7 goals in 18 appearances so far.
In the first meeting against Liverpool, Lukaku himself could not score a goal. In fact, Lukaku does not often make threats to Alisson’s goal.
If recommended, Chelsea could play Kai Havertz up front. The German player is often installed as a false 9 in Thomas Tuchel’s tactics.
