Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has defined the visit of Liverpool as a special game, reported Sportal.bg.
The Londoners have been perfect away from home in the Premier League since the start of the season and have ambitions to pick up points at Anfield despite being without a win against the Merseysiders in nine games in a row. The Italian also confirmed the news that Chelsea captain Reece James is now fully recovered and available for selection.
“Reece James is available. He worked with us during the national team break. This is good news, especially for him. He is currently unable to play two games a week. I think now the best solution is to play once a week. In the future? I don't know yet.
Matches against Liverpool are special for all clubs. The environment there is fantastic and we are excited to play in that type of game. They are a very tough opponent. We will do our best to get points. They are doing fantastic, they have very good players and a very good manager. The club is very good. They have been at this level for many years and continue to maintain it, which is important to them.
We will approach the match without thinking about where we are in the standings. This match will not determine how far we have come, Maresca said.
