The Blues are desperate to halt a disastrous run of six consecutive Premier League defeats but must do so without several key first-team figures.

The Blues will be without starting goalkeeper Sanchez for Saturday's lunchtime kick-off on Merseyside. The Spaniard was forced off during the recent 3-1 home defeat to Nottingham Forest following a heavy head-on-head collision with Morgan Gibbs-White. While Sanchez underwent stitches and extensive testing at Cobham this week, he has not been cleared to return under the mandatory concussion protocols.
