Liverpool, fresh off clinching the Premier League title, will face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, who are in dire need of points for a Champions League berth. Chelsea's narrow win over Everton was pivotal, and they aim to capitalize on any complacency from Liverpool after their recent victory. Chelsea also performed well in the Europa Conference League, but this trophy will mean little if they fail to finish in the top five of the league. The match also recalls a decade-old gesture when Liverpool honored Chelsea with a guard of honour after their title win.
Every point between now and the end of the season counts for Chelsea as they fight to qualify for next season's Champions League. The table is very tight in that section.
Chelsea will surely be looking to take advantage of any hangover Liverpool may be suffering from after winning the title; not to mention their lack of need for points.
Even winning the Europa Conference League won’t be much of a consolation if Chelsea fail to secure a top-five finish in the Premier League.
Chelsea's crucial recent victory over Everton highlights the importance of every point as they aim to secure their Champions League place for next season.
