The Carabao Cup final will be held at the end of February. Concerns may be increasing in the Liverpool camp because they have entered a busy match period in four competitions, namely the Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup. If you look at the match schedule, Chelsea is certainly at an advantage because they only focus on the domestic league, but their unstable performance this season has changed many perceptions, where they will definitely have difficulty winning against Liverpool in the future. In my opinion, this final is ideal, bringing together big clubs, usually as we have seen, the Blues often perform well when facing other elite teams, so this match is really worth watching.

On the other hand, we will actually see the Liverpool versus Chelsea meeting in the 22nd week of the EPL, in my opinion this is no less interesting, and of course it will be a big match. On paper, the Reds clearly deserve to be at the top because we can see the reputation of the two clubs so far by referring to the standings, it is clear to us the difference in performance and statistics recorded. Even though Salah is currently absent, I don't think this will have a big impact on Liverpool. Klopp, with his wealth of experience, has proven that they are fine without Salah in the starting XI. Moreover, next week match will take place at Anfield, it is clear that they will benefit from playing in front of their own supporters.

I don't think that Liverpool is just a team that relies on one player like Mohammed Salah, even though Mohammed Salah is a pretty good and extraordinary player. But Liverpool is very aware that they basically have to rely on all the players they currently have because logically it would be impossible for Liverpool to get to the top position like now if they only relied on one player in any match. Everyone has seen how Liverpool can win matches without Mohammed Salah, which means that Liverpool are indeed good enough at the moment so they can still occupy the top position until now.

The rankings of EPL teams are based on their performance. Liverpool and Manchester City are among the favourites to win the EPL, but Aston Villa will struggle and may drop out of the top four this season. The EPL Stand is only operational for elite competing clubs; none of these teams intend to fail, but it is a fact. We have both excellent and average teams that do struggle to win games. Arsenal are in the top competitive race for the EPL this season, which is important for Mikel Arteta because he is the driving force behind the club's great achievement.

I don't see it in that light actually because the Arsenal I know now and the current Liverpool team isn't one that will be contending for a decider except Arsenal is better improved by this time then I could see possibilities in this match turning out a decider for Liverpool but otherwise it's going to be a regular struggle.

I'm not disputing the fact that Arsenal can be tough on Liverpool, giving them a really strong resistance but then Liverpool is very much equal to the task and seeing the possibilities in winning the trophy if only they can add some more wins to their records is enough psychological strength for Liverpool to want to play better even if they wouldn't have earlier so it's a match were both team have got something to fight for but then one team is at advantage already and I'm not expecting to see a weak performance from either side neither I'm I expecting a draw too.

It was a common thing since liverpool was playing away against fulham. Fulham has been boosting caused by it was playing in front of all of its supporters. Additionally, it must be acknowledged that Liverpool's exceptional performance can be attributed to their strengthened mindset, which has enabled them to surpass previous achievements. Jota performed quite good against fulham while diaz must be marked as man of the match in this game. He knows that if the club is still performing so well. Glad to see that even with the worst club and chelsea is still able performing quite well till it reaches the final against liverpool. Chelsea has got the easiest route to be qualified for the final of carabao cup and i do support this club to beat liverpool soon.

Chelsea is slowly but surely learning a lot from the previous games. Pochettino needs to make a lot of preparation, especially in preventing salah and diaz. Nunez can be stopped easily while diaz and salah are the main threats for chelsea in the final.
It sounds good to see chelsea is performing pretty well this time. Liverpool has been doing good in fulham's home. These clubs are deserved a place in the final next month.
There will be interesting match to watch at the end of februyary between chelsea vs liverpool.

Lately Arsenal has proven that they are ready to come back to there good performance because checking there position on the premier League and there pattern of play you will agree with me that Arsenal is back on there feet to compete for the league champion.

Every team that wants to achieve something must show a reaction after several defeats. Arsenal still ranks 3rd in the Premier League standings.

It is quite clear that Arsenal are getting their mojo back after that wonderful display against Crystal Palace but Arteta need to work more on his wingers in terms of counter, let every counter attack count, it must be a goal. We all know how Liverpool are with high play and counter attack too, if Arsenal convert all their chances I don't see Liverpool recovering any time soon and start playing like they used to.
We might be surprised, if Arsenal get a win against Liverpool they (Liverpool) will start losing games and eventually drop to 3rd or 4th position. It won't be easy in that game but I believe the Gunners will dominate that game because the Liverpool defense isn't that strong compared to the Gunner's.

I also hope Liverpool can play better in the final against Chelsea. And don't let Liverpool play like they did in yesterday's match against Fullham. Because I feel Liverpool didn't play optimally in that match. They are too confident to get through and may underestimate their opponents a little. But I'm happy because they were finally able to qualify for the final.

And I still believe that M. Salah's absence will not make Liverpool weaker than Chelsea. So Liverpool will most likely lift the EFL Cup trophy. But Chelsea's last match also surprised me. So maybe if Chelsea really had risen then it would be natural for Liverpool to lose. But I think the possibility of Liverpool losing is quite small. Unless there is a surprise return from Chelsea.

Liverpool should be given the credit on winning that match on the finals against Chelsea, because I think that Liverpool is stronger than Chelsea. The problems is that Sallah is not in the team currently, and this can be a big challenge for Liverpool because Chelsea is a big club and might take that match as a do or die affair because Pocchetino knows that it is the only advantage for them to win a trophy this season.

Chelsea can not be trusted because they can do well today and disappoint you tomorrow, this is why I cannot rely on them but they can be very surprising sometime. If they take this match very serious and pit in their best performance, it will be difficult for Liverpool to win them.

Lol, it will be completely different games, and i am certain you know that. I think Liverpool have more motivation to win the EPL tie, that is because they are in the title race, and Chelsea are not. Having said that, the Carabao cup is Chelsea's only opportunity to win a title, so they might give it their all, and be lucky to win it, meanwhile i truly believe Liverpool has a chance to win the CL and the Europa league, so their options isn't as limited as Chelsea's.

Klopp should have prepared a replacement for Salah for a while until he returns to playing for Liverpool. I think we all know that this busy schedule will of course make the players' performance maybe decline a little due to fatigue. I think Klopp should really pay attention to the importance of rotating players. to stay in good condition and maintain stamina, at least good performance when facing opponents. Liverpool's draw against Fulham was enough to take Liverpool to the EFL final against Chelsea.

In the EPL meeting, Liverpool will also face Chelsea in early February. It is possible that Salah also doesn't seem to be able to play for two important matches. After fighting Chelsea in the EPL, they will face Arsenal, of course it will be a difficult match without Salah, considering that Manchester City is facing an opponent that is easy to play. shift Liverpool at any time if they only get unsatisfactory results when facing Chelsea and Arsenal in February. I hope Liverpool maintains their consistency well in the race for the EPL title this season.

The performance of both teams was equally good in the last match, but Arsenal doesn't seem to have fully recovered after losing 8 points in their last 4 matches. Arsenal, playing at home, can certainly be expected to give the best they can, but Liverpool is a team that has so far improved its consistency.

But before the match against Arsenal, Liverpool must first complete two other matches against Norwich and Chelsea. Liverpool certainly have to prepare their team's fitness ahead of the match against Arsenal because Chelsea have also been in their best form in their last 3 matches in the Premier League. This busy schedule allows Klopp to rotate in the next match against Norwich, otherwise I think there are many players who will be tired to play 100% against Chelsea and Arsenal.

There is every possibility that Chelsea could win the Carabao cup though I'm not judging them base on their current performance but rather base on the fact that they know truly well that they may not have a spot in the top four of the league table not to even talk of becoming the title contenders therefore, this is an opportunity for them to at least go with a trophy this season so I believe that they will focus all their energy in the Carabao cup and as for Liverpool, they have divided attention because they are the league title contenders and also hoping for an European glory so they might actually see the Carabao cup as of less importance to them and focus more of their energy in the premier league and Europa League of which they have visible advantage in the both competition but however, "a bird at hand is worth more than millions in the bush so they may also wish to win the Carabao cup while also hoping for more trophies but notwithstanding what the outcome of the final would be between Liverpool and Chelsea, i believe the match is really gonna be tough between the both clubs.

The draw that occurred in the EFL Cup match between Fulham v Liverpool was actually still a normal result because after all, Liverpool basically won on aggregate because in the first leg Liverpool won with a score of 2-1. Therefore, in this second leg there is no ambition for Liverpool to win big because after all, just a draw is enough for Liverpool to qualify for the final match. Moreover, even though Liverpool were certain to qualify but yes, Liverpool still played well because in the first half Liverpool also won with Luis Diaz's quick goal in the 11th minute, although in the second half Fulham managed to equalize the score at 1-1 but yes, with On aggregate, Liverpool won with a score of 3-2 and Liverpool still qualified for the final match against Chelsea later.

Mohamed Salah is the most important player in Liverpool team's attacking department. I think Liverpool are very weak without Mohamed Salah, because if the goalkeeper and defenders are very strong, if the attacking department is weak, then it is never possible for the team to win. Will the player who replaces Mohamed Salah make up for Mohamed Salah's shortcomings?
I think chelsea team is very strong because their performance is very good in current season. Two strong teams are proving to be here but without striker Mohamed Salah in the Liverpool squad, the team looks weak.

Salah has been a top performer for Liverpool, no doubt he has been their most important player, so not having him around in an important match like this will surely be visible for everyone to see. I hope Arsenal can make good use of this opportunity and win this game. I just hope Mikel Arteta know what to do to win this game.

Even though it is not the main target for Liverpool, it is very clear that Liverpool's game here is not too ambitious to win, however their focus is only on winning the EPL for this season even though the match only ended in a draw but Liverpool still advanced to the next round, and there is the most important match another for the upcoming 28th in the FA Cup match against Norwich of course it is a busy schedule for Liverpool for this week, because it will drain the stamina of the players, Jürgen Klopp is well aware of this situation if they force their players then in the EPL match they will lost important points in hosting Chelsea in Week 22.

Since Mohammed salah will not be playing the match Arsenal has a better chance of wining the match because lately Arsenal seem to have realized there mistakes and they have been improving seriously, and also for Liverpool to have draw there match against Fulham I think Arsenal is going to win them.

Salah is the most vital player in the Liverpool squad. The injury suffered by Salah was a major blow to Liverpool's ability to compete this season. Even though Salah will miss 4 or 5 matches for Liverpool, at least there is Jota who can replace Salah's role, especially in the last few matches Jota has impressed by scoring goals. Of course, Jota's improved performance could make Liverpool a little relieved to cover Salah's absence in the next few matches. Moreover, with the busy schedule that Liverpool faces in various competitions, it certainly requires players who are truly fit and perform well.
