Of the story:
Liverpool: The Reds are a favorite of these and have two more days to rest. If you do not find a place on Friday XI, Sadio may feel the start. He came in as a substitute for the second half. The Reds should be able to create enough chances to fight to keep the shape on Sunday about a Blues defense.
Chelsea: It is back to the drawing board for Frank Lampard, especially after a poor performance against United in the second half. N'Golo Conte needed in the middle but it didn't make a cent. Don't be surprised if he prioritizes rest here with the upcoming Premier League action next weekend against Leicester City. Although it is an opportunity in the trophy, Lampard may have to use this match to test some matches, especially in attack.
