Leicester will host the table-topping Reds to kick-off Matchday 4, in what should be an interesting encounter at the King Power Stadium.
\nLiverpool have scored seven goals so far this season and Alisson is yet to pick a ball up out of his net, as a strong back four led by Virgil Van Dijk have been resolute all season long.
\nOn the other hand, the Foxes have begun with two wins and a loss to start the campaign, with their loss coming on the opening day at the hands of Manchester United.
\nSince then, they\u2019ve gone on to defeat Wolves and Southampton, although Liverpool may prove to be a sterner test, especially without the suspended Jamie Vardy in the squad.
\nThe Foxes have the home ground advantage on their side and they certainly have it in them to cause an upset, although Liverpool have just looked too assured to start the season to be giving up these types of results.<\/p>\n
Chelsea have begun their 2018-19 campaign in perfect fashion, defeating Huddersfield, Arsenal and Newcastle to start with nine points from three games.
\nThe Blues are one of four teams to start a perfect three from three, although they\u2019ll be coming up against a fellow unbeaten side this week in Bournemouth, who fought hard last weekend to salvage a point against Everton.
\nThe Cherries were down 2-0 in the 75th minute, before Joshua King and Nathan Ake scored twice in five minutes to steal a result.
\nWins against Cardiff and West Ham mean Bournemouth have seven points from nine, although they\u2019ll run into a different type of side on Sunday.
\nChelsea managed to see off Newcastle courtesy of a late DeAndre Yedlin own goal last week, although they should be able to seal this result a little earlier on in the piece.<\/p>\n
In what is shaping up to be the match of the round, Tottenham travel to Vicarage Road to face Watford to cap off the weekend.
\nBoth sides haven\u2019t dropped any points over the opening three rounds, with the Hornets defeating Brighton, Burnley and Crystal Palace, while the Spurs have recorded wins over Newcastle, Fulham and most recently (and most impressively) Manchester United.
\nBoth defences have looked quite sturdy this season, leaking just two goals each, while Tottenham have rammed in eight goals, and Watford seven.
\nLucas Moura has impressed during his start to the season, and both sides will be looking to remain undefeated as we enter the first international break of the campaign after the upcoming weekend.
\nWe could have a goal fest in this one.<\/p>\n
