Hello and welcome to Cobham for live updates from Calum McFarlane's pre-match press conference ahead of Chelsea's trip to Liverpool on Saturday afternoon.
The Blues make the journey to Merseyside this weekend, in Saturday's early kick-off, with McFarlane looking to lead his side to a much-needed victory at Anfield. Chelsea have been defeated in their last six Premier League matches - with their latest loss coming at home to Nottingham Forest three days ago.
Chelsea's hopes of European football are slowly slipping away, unless the Blues can secure a positive result at the home of the champions this weekend. Liverpool, though, have also had a disappointing season under Arne Slot. The Reds go into this weekend's round of fixtures in fourth-place, with Champions League football all but secured, though there is disappointment Slot's men could not compete for the title again.
McFarlane is set to be in the room at 1:30pm (UK time) this afternoon. **Bobby Vincent** is in Cobham to bring you live updates from the latest press conference.
