Liverpool, now coached by former City boss Gareth Taylor, are in a mess: 11th in the table with just one point from seven matches. Chelsea are expected to handle this. But facing a side that desperate, in front of their own crowd, is exactly the sort of fixture that punishes any drop in standards.

Manchester United fell to a first Champions League defeat after losing 5-2 at Wolfsburg.

United are looking a threat down the left flank and once again Anna Sandberg gets into an advance position, although her cross is blocked.
