Match information

Liverpool are still in contention for all of the Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup and EFL Cup in Jurgen Klopp’s final season. On Sunday, Liverpool could win their first trophy of the season when they take on Chelsea in the EFL Cup final. The two sides will meet at London’s famed Wembley Stadium and the Blues have their first opportunity to win silverware under Mauricio Pochettino. With Liverpool’s domestic treble dreams alive, we’ll take a closer look at the Chelsea vs Liverpool EFL odds. The last three times Chelsea and Liverpool have met in finals, the match has finished level. In the 2022 EFL Cup and FA Cup finals and the 2019 UEFA Super Cup final, Liverpool managed to defeat Chelsea in penalties. In fact, seven of the last eight meetings between these teams have finished in a draw. Liverpool broke the draw streak at the end of January by defeating Chelsea 4-1 in the Premier League. Chelsea have won just two of their last 16 games vs Liverpool, in all competitions. Chelsea are not playing in European competition this season, which is a major disappointment for them. Still, the EFL Cup is a qualifier for one of the European tournaments, the UEFA Europa Conference League. If Chelsea finish outside of the top seven in the Premier League, this is their only chance to play in Europe next season. Silverware would be nice for Liverpool to win, in Klopp’s final season but they have bigger fish to fry. Regardless, Liverpool will go for it here and the Chelsea vs Liverpool EFL odds price the Reds as +115 favorites. Punters can back Chelsea at +210 odds and a draw sits at +260 odds. Given the history in this fixture, a draw might not be a bad pick. Bettors should stay tuned for updates about Liverpool’s injury situation as the week goes on, as that news could move the lines. Chelsea pk, +0.5 comes in at -115, while Liverpool pk, -0.5 is priced at -110. Liverpool exploded or four goals when these sides met a few weeks ago and that was also without Salah in the lineup. Don’t necessarily expect a blowout here, as Chelsea have a point to prove. Both over and under 2.5, 3 goals show -115 odds for this EFL Cup final at Wembley Stadium. Note that Chelsea have lost their last seven domestic finals. For European tournaments betting news, odds analysis, and more, visit Point Spreads Sports Magazine
