Chelsea and Liverpool have named their lineups for their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge, one that is played to the ongoing Moises Caicedo transfer saga.

In his first game as Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino has selected three of his summer buys, with Robert Sanchez starting in goals, Axel Disasi in a back three alongside Thiago Silva and Levi Colwill and Nicolas Jackson up top.
