The Premier League took a short break in favor of FA Cup action, but the English top-flight returns to action with midweek matches. It all starts on Tueday with Chelsea traveling to Anfield.
The league leaders will look to maintain their healthy lead at the top, and will thus need to triumph over the Reds. The Merseyside giants are struggling with form, having crashed out of the League Cup and FA Cup
The home side will be boosted by the return of Sadio Mane, but the Senegalese will likely start on the bench. A loss to the Blues will all but end Liverpool’s title hopes.
Second-placed Arsenal will also be on action, hosting Watford. This will be the second game that Arsene Wenger will miss, having received a four-game touchline ban from the FA.
Manchester United host Hull City with the hopes of continuing their good form and boost their chances of a top four finish. Neighbors Manchester City face a tricky test away to West Ham.
