Is Liverpool v Chelsea on TV? Channel, kick-off time and how to watch Premier League fixture

Liverpool host Chelsea in the Premier League looking to wrap up Champions League qualification and bounce back from last weekend’s defeat to Manchester United.

Arne Slot’s side suffered a chastening defeat at Old Trafford, despite a fight from two goals down, but a win would all but secure a top-five finish with two games to play.

Chelsea arrive at Anfield having lost their last six games in a row in the Premier League, but their own Champions League hopes are still not over yet.

If Aston Villa win the Europa League and finish fifth, sixth place would be enough for Champions League. The Blues are four points behind sixth-placed Bournemouth.

Here’s everything you need to know:
