CAIRO-18 September 2020: The second week of the Premier League gives the league fans a fantastic game to watch as Premier League defending champions, Liverpool, travel to London to take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
 
Both clubs had a fantastic start this season as Liverpool achieved a narrow4-3 win over Leeds United while Frank Lampard boys defeated Brighton and Hove Albion 3-1.
 
Liverpool’s German manager Jurgen Klopp suffered last season to get the six points from the two clashes against Frank Lampard. 
 
 
The first game in London ended with a 2-1 win for the Reds while the second game in Liverpool ended with a 5-3 victory for the home team, who lifted the league trophy after the game for the first time in 30 years. 
 
Chelsea hurt Liverpool last season as the Blues defeated the Reds 2-0 to knock them out of the FA Cup competition. 
 
Chelsea were the most active team in Europe in this summer transfer window, having signed six top class players, spending more than £200 million to be able to fight for the title.
 
“They've signed really well and already had an unbelievably good team, we had to suffer a lot against them in the games last season. There's so many good players up front, in midfield, the defensive line and the full-backs - there's not a biggest threat, Chelsea themselves are the threat - that's how it is in football.” Klopp told Skysports ahead of the Sunday’s clash.
 
The game starts on Sunday at 17:30.
