Liverpool next Premier League fixtures compared with Man City and Chelsea

Liverpool’s Premier League title hopes suffered another major blow after they were held by Chelsea on Sunday afternoon.

Goals from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah fired the Reds into a commanding two-goal lead after just 26 minutes in the capital.

But a Mateo Kovacic volley and Christian Pulisic strike restored parity before the break and eventually earned Thomas Tuchel’s side a share of the points.

The draw leaves Liverpool 11 points behind table toppers Manchester City, who came from behind to beat Arsenal on Saturday afternoon.

However, the Reds do have a game in hand on Pep Guardiola’s side and still have to face City at the Etihad.

And below we have taken a look at the fixtures of City and Chelsea as they are set to do battle with the Reds in the coming weeks and months.
