Liverpool will look to seal its place in next season’s UEFA Champions League on Saturday as it hosts a Chelsea team that is now in serious danger of missing out on European football next term.
Arne Slot’s men saw their recent run of three straight wins upended by a 3-2 defeat to Man United at Old Trafford. That match saw the Reds mount an encouraging second-half comeback. Slot will be keen to build on that performance with a win here set to confirm a top-five finish for the hosts. Chelsea, meanwhile, is limping over the line.
While Calum McFarlane oversaw an FA Cup semifinal win over Leeds last month, the interim boss has so far been unable to get the Blues back to winning ways in the English Premier League. Last weekend, they were defeated 3-1 at home by relegation-threatened Forest. That extended the Blues’ losing streak to five matches, and left the west Londoners three points behind seventh-placed Brentford.
Liverpool takes on Chelsea on Saturday, May 9, at Anfield, with kickoff set for 12:30 p.m. BST. That makes it a 7:30 a.m. ET or 4:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 9:30 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia.
Cody Gakpo’s second-half strike wasn’t enough to prevent Liverpool crashing to a 3-2 defeat away at Manchester United last Sunday.

How to watch the Premier League 2025-26 with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with Premier League action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. Additionally, it can be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, providing an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.
