The penultimate game of an unhappy season for the blues is scheduled at Anfield against a side that has just secured an European Final ticket for the first time in nearly a decade.
The blues were narrowly beaten last time out with goals from Diego Costa and Matic not enough to prevent the black cats from heading home with all three points. Liverpool however prevailed at home in a 2:0 win against Watford.
There could be a return against his former employees for Daniel Sturridge while John Terry is set to miss the match after receiving his marching orders against Sunderland.It is up to Guus Hiddink to decide who will partner Gary Cahill in the heart of the defence with Matt Miazga or John Obi Mikel likely to fill the void in the absence of recuperating Kurt Zouma.There could be chances for either Pato,Traore or Falcao after Hiddink criticised Diego Costa's poor finishing against Sunderland.
The reverse fixture saw the blues defeated by a Philippe Coutinho double in a 3:1 victory for the Reds with Mourinho watching from the dugout.The reds have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last nine matches against the blues while the blues will be hoping to disrupt a league double from Liverpool who play Sevilla in Basel on 18th may in the Europa league Final.
