Liverpool-Chelsea Preview

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admires the work Frank Lampard has done since taking over at Stamford Bridge, as the Premier League champions prepare to face injury hit Chelsea on Sunday.

The Reds got their title defence started with a dramatic 4-3 win over Leeds United at Anfield, while big-spending Chelsea saw off Brighton and Hove Albion 3-1.

Klopp and Lampard – who clashed on the touchline in July – became embroiled in a verbal tussle in the build up to those matches, with Liverpool's boss criticising Chelsea's expenditure this window.

However, Klopp insisted he holds no ill-feeling towards Lampard.
