Former England and Tottenham Hotspur forward Peter Crouch has backed Liverpool football club to come out on top when they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League matchday 7 star game.

Chelsea will host the Reds in Saturday’s late kick-off, with both sides eager to bounce back after disappointing results in their last Premier League outings. Naija News reports that Blues were held by Brighton, while Liverpool failed to beat Crystal Palace.

Speaking on That Peter Crouch Podcast, the ex-striker was confident that Arne Slot’s men would get the reaction they needed.

“Liverpool probably need a reaction, but it is a tough place to go, obviously, at Chelsea,” Crouch said. “I do think Liverpool will get a result here, though. I’m going in! I’m going to go 3-1 Liverpool.”

The high-profile Premier League matchday 7 clash is set for 5:30 p.m. Nigerian time on Saturday, October 4, at Stamford Bridge, London.
