Chelsea predicted XI vs Liverpool as Bruno set for defensive changes and Mason Mount decision

Bruno Saltor has never picked a starting XI before but will be tasked with doing so for the first time as interim-Chelsea boss when they take on Liverpool on Tuesday evening. The Brighton legend has spent his entire coaching career under Graham Potter but will now have to take full responsibility for what happens on the pitch following the 47-year-old's departure on Sunday night.

Bruno confirmed in his press conference on Monday that Chelsea's injury outlook was the same as the weekend, meaning he will not be able to choose Thiago Silva, Edouard Mendy or Cesar Azpilicueta for his maiden starting XI. It also leaves the likes of Raheem Sterling and Wesley Fofana in an uncertain situation after Potter suggested last week that they could be available to face Jurgen Klopp's side.
