Ziyech, Pulisic, Silva and Chilwell ruled out against Liverpool

Chelsea are set for their first test of the season with a home game against the Premier League Champions, Liverpool.

Chelsea will host Jurgen Klopp side at the Stamford Bridge on Sunday evening.

The Blues seems to be the most active club in this summer window with signings of seven players so far.

Some big names have arrived the club for huge transfer fee which has seen Chelsea named among the title favourites.

Timo Werner joined from RB Leipzig, Hakim Ziyech from Ajax, Ben Chilwell from Leicester City, Thaigo Silva from PSG, Kai Havertz from Bayern Leverkusen and Malang Sarr from Lille are some of the signings Frank Lampard has made so far.

If you recall that Chelsea defeated Brighton Hove Albion 3-1 at the Amex Stadium on monday night while Liverpool overcame Leeds United 4-3 at Anfield stadium.

Ahead of the game on Sunday, Lampard has ruled out Thiago Silva, Ben Chilwell and Christian Pulisic.

Also, Hakim Ziyech is another player who wouldn't be available as he remains sidelined due to a knee issue.

He told reporters: "Ben Chilwell is not ready for the game, Christian Pulisic is not ready for the game and is quite similar to Ben.

"We hope they are training and progressing over the next week or so. Hakim Ziyech is also not ready for the game. Timo Werner is fit."

Thaigo Silva left Paris Saint-Germain to join the West London outfit as a free agent.

He wouldn't be available for the game as the manager admits he's still working on his fitness.

Lampard added: "Thiago's been training with us for the last three or four days.

"We're just working with him on his fitness for the moment, so Liverpool will come too soon for him."
