Chelsea v Liverpool - Preview and possible lineups

Chelsea: Left-back Marcos Alonso is available for selection once again after completing his three-match suspension, though fellow defenders David Luiz (knee) and Ethan Ampadu (ankle) remain sidelined. Midfielders Danny Drinkwater (groin) and Ross Barkley are both doubts.

Liverpool: Joe Gomez's ankle problem means he joins Joel Matip (thigh), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (knee) and Emre Can (back) on the injury list. Adam Lallana has returned to full training following his hamstring injury, but this game is expected to come too soon for him.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte:

"I think now our target, our focus, is to finish in the best possible way, to try to fight for a place in the Champions League.

"It won't be easy. The situation is not in our hands. But we have to try and start with three points against Liverpool."

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp on potential distractions:

"We have two semis again, against Chelsea and Brighton. Both games are important. There is no chance to think of anything else and then we have two weeks to prepare [for the Champions League final]."
