Chelsea train hard ahead of second clash with Liverpool this week

Maurizio Sarri has Chelsea working hard in training as they prepare to face Liverpool for a second time this week

Maurizio Sarri has been pushing his squad to the limit in training this week as they prepare for their second match againstJurgen Klopp's Livrpool in four days. 
It was Chelsea who came out on top of the midweek Carabao Cup tie after Eden Hazard came off the bench and put in a world class display to turn the tides in their favour.
A world class goal by the Belgian earned Chelsea a dramatic 2-1 win late on. The winger will have to show something special again on the weekend, under a new lease of life with Sarri there's no doubt he's capable of it.

With Virgil Van Dijk potentially unfit for the gargantuan tie this weekend, Chelsea's forwards will be licking their lips. 
Both Chelsea and Liverpool are two of the three teams left in the Premier League yet to lose this season. Liverpool are the only team with a perfect record of six wins, another on Saturday would live the club their best start to a season ever.

Klopp's high press has worked a treat for him so far and Sarri will be all too aware that his players will have to work even harder than normal if they want to win a match which could play a huge part in this year's title race.
The tactical battle between the two managers will be fascinating but all eyes will be on Hazard and Mohamed Salah. The battle promises to be a special one which will surely be entertaining for any  football fan.

Jurgen Klopp storms onto pitch and rages at Liverpool star after Chelsea lows

Jurgen Klopp  made a beeline for summer signing Xherdan Shaqiri and gave him some animated feedback on his performance in Liverpool’s defeat to Chelsea on Wednesday evening. The Reds took a second-half lead at Anfield in the Carabao Cup through Daniel Sturridge, but were stung late on by a tap-in from full-back Emerson before  Eden Hazard scored an incredible solo goal to put the visitors into the next round. At full-time, Klopp exchanged pleasantries with Maurizio Sarri and the Chelsea bench, but then walked onto the pitch to seek out Shaqiri. The Swiss star had a rather frustrating evening, wasting a number of chances on the break as Chelsea pushed for an equaliser, and Klopp seemed furious with his winger.
