Jürgen Klopp still does not have a reinforcement to replace Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, so the German tactician will have to improvise for this match, and the best thing that could happen is to recover for this game his injured players who could play as holding midfielders with a more defensive profile, as is the case of Thiago Alcántara and Stefan Bajčetić.
Although both Thiago and Bajčetić are already training with their teammates and are gradually getting better, and it won't be long before they can completely overcome their rehabilitation, so it is unlikely that they will see action for the match against Chelsea, as they would not be in rhythm for not having participated in the preseason, and Klopp needs the best to start the season with positive results and give the best version of the team.
Thiago Alcántara will apparently stay with the Reds this season and will have a big responsibility as a holding midfielder as he and Stefan Bajčetić could be the only natural fit for this position, and for this Sunday's game Klopp will have to find the best way for his team not to suffer from his absence, as Thiago Bajčetić will first have to work and recover his fitness before he can see league action.
The start of the Premier League is getting closer and Liverpool are still waiting to sign at least one more player, however for Sunday's game Jürgen Klopp and his team will have to play with some improvisations, as they also have to define the team's attack where although there are not many doubts, they will have to confirm the level that the strikers have shown. Chelsea will also be without a full squad as their French striker Christopher Nkunku, so it will be a game with absentees for both teams.
