Liverpool manager Arne Slot enjoyed a record-breaking start to his tenure at Anfield but was measured in his response, saying they have yet to face a top side. That is all about to change with the visit of in-form Chelsea on Sunday. Liverpool have 18 points after seven games, having scored 13 goals and conceded two, to stand a point ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal, while Chelsea are fourth on 14. "I looked at the league table and ‘OK, which teams did we face and in which position are they? Are they in the top half or the bottom?’" Slot said of his side’s schedule so far.
