Chelsea v LFC: Team news confirmed

Liverpool are unchanged from the side that last week scraped to a 2-1 victory over QPR (who were relegated earlier this afternoon following a 6-0 hammering by Manchester City).

The reds face Chelsea in their first fixture since they won the Premier League last weekend - and the reds will give the side from Stamford Bridge a guard of honour as they walk on to the pitch.

Adam Lallana starts on his 27th birthday.
