The team of coach Jürgen Klopp had to compete against Burnley on the last day of the game. After 529 days, the fans returned to Anfield Stadium for the first time. 53,000 were present in the stadium and had to watch their team come under defensive pressure against the strong-acting guests from Burnley. Completely surprisingly, Liverpool went into the front after 18 minutes with the first direct attack by Diogo Jota.
In the following period, the Reds became stronger and stronger and came up with goal space scenes. Since Salah’s goal didn’t count due to an offside position, it remained at 1-0 until the break. Only one minute was played after the side change when Barnes made the equaliser. However, the goal rightly did not count due to an offside position. Afterwards, only Liverpool played and came up with countless chances. In the 69th minute, Mané increased his lead to 2-0. This should remain the case in the end.
The first day of play was also very successful for the Klopp protégés and led to a 3-0 victory over Norwich. It is fair to say that Burnley and Norwich have not been on the agenda for any particularly difficult tasks. Chelsea is of a completely different caliber. With six points captured and a goal difference of five to zero, Liverpool shares second place in the league table with the Blues. At the top, West Ham is enthroned. A look at the odds puts Liverpool behind Manchester City and Chelsea as title favourites.
Last season, the Reds won only ten out of a total of 19 home games. In addition, there were six defeats and three draws. The Reds finished fifth in the home table.

The Blues played for Arsenal on the last Premier League Matchday. The odds showed the guests as slight favourites even before the start of the game. The blues did justice to this role from the very beginning. After 15 minutes, new record entry Lukaku changed a James flank to 1-0. With the early gate, the protégés of Tuchel controlled the events and continued. James was there in the 35th minute and was able to increase his lead to 2-0.
Shortly before the break, the blues were very lucky that the ref did not give a penalty after a duel between James and Saka. A similar picture emerged in the second round. The guests controlled the game and were fortunate on their side when Holding recklessly missed the goal. Since Lukaku and Havertz didn’t make use of their chances in the final period, it ultimately remained at 2-0.
The first matchday was also very successful. Against the underdog Crystal Palace, a clear 3-0 victory was achieved at home. After the first two Premier League rounds, there are six points to be scored. This yield puts the blues in second place in the standings. This is shared with Liverpool due to the same goal ratio. The offensive scored five goals and the defence did not allow a goal to be conceded. As already mentioned, Chelsea is considered a favourite for the English championship alongside Manchester City.
Last season, Chelsea was one of the league’s six strongest away teams. Ten out of 19 away games were won. In addition, there were four draws and five defeats.
