Chelsea vs. Liverpool Live Stream, Experts Pick, Predicted Lineups & Injury Report of English Premier League 2014

Saturday's English Premier League scheduled will be loaded with action, and there's no more intriguing match out there than the match between long-time rival Chelsea and Liverpool at 8:45 p.m (United States EST).

What's at Stake?

Bad blood will spill all over Anfield as the Reds play host to the Blues for the first time this season.

Liverpool is coming into the match with extra motivation after absorbing back-to-back setbacks at the hands Newcastle United in domestic play and Real Madrid in UEFA Champions League level.

Meanwhile, Chelsea will try to get back into their winning grove after a disappointing 1-1 draw with NK Maribor in their UEFA Champions League campaign.

Injury Update:

Liverpool is expected to play without injured ace striker Daniel Sturridge, putting the pressure on Italian striker Mario Balotelli to bring his A-game on Saturday. The Red defensive unit will also miss the service of Mamadou Sakho (thigh strain) and left-back Jose Enrique (knee injury).

Chelsea will have a healthy Diego Costa back on the field against the Reds in the game, making them more dangerous in their offensive attacks. Loic Remy and John Obi Mikel, on the other hand, are questionable to play in the rivalry match.

Predicted Starting Lineups:

Liverpool (Possible 4-1-2-1-2) Simon Mignolet, Javier Manquillo, Kolo Toure, Dejan Lovren, Alberto Moreno; Steven Gerrard, Jordan Henderson, Emre Can, Raheem Sterling; Fabio Borini, Mario Balotelli.

Chelsea (Possible 4-2-3-1) Thibaut Courtois, Branislav Ivanovic, Gary Cahill, John Terry, Felipe Luis; Nemanja Matic, Cesc Fabregas, Eden Hazard, Oscar, Willian; Diego Costa.
