Robert Sánchez will likely guard the posts. His excellent shot-stopping and penalty-saving ability and composure under pressure make him a reliable choice. Sánchez has been a consistent presence at the back, and against Liverpool's potent attack, his skills will be put to the test.
Defence: Cucurella, Colwill, Fofana, and Gusto
In defence, we see Marc Cucurella as the left-back, Levi Colwill and Wesley Fofana in central defence, and Malo Gusto at right-back. This defensive lineup has a blend of youthful energy and solid tackling ability. Colwill’s reading of the game and Fofana’s physicality would offer a steady central partnership. Gusto, known for his attacking runs and defensive resilience, will be critical in keeping Liverpool’s wingers at bay.
Midfield: Caicedo, Palmer, and Fernández
Chelsea’s midfield has both creativity and solidity. Moisés Caicedo, Cole Palmer, and Enzo Fernández form a dynamic trio. Caicedo offers defensive cover, while Palmer has emerged as a young talent with great vision, technical, and goal-scoring ability. Fernández will likely be tasked with linking defence and attack, using his range of passing to set up play from deeper positions.
Attack: Sancho, Jackson, and Neto
Up front, Chelsea could field an attacking trio of Jadon Sancho, Nicolas Jackson, and Pedro Neto. Sancho’s dribbling and creativity on the wings will be key in breaking down Liverpool’s defense. Jackson, a physical presence, will lead the line as the central striker, while Neto’s pace and crossing ability will be a constant threat from the right side.
