5 teams that could end Chelsea's unbeaten run

Chelsea continued its own race in the Premier League, remaining unbeaten for the season so far. One should never underestimate the power of motivation as Chelsea who have extended their undefeated run to a impressive 14 matches in all competitions, will be tested severely by every opponent they face here onwards as the teams will be motivated to end this remarkable run. This Chelsea team managed by Jose Mourinho has survived the test of Manchester City at Etihad, Manchester United at Old Trafford, two stadiums that rarely allows visiting teams to exit with any points in hand. Of the 14 matches that they played this season, Chelsea have won 11 of them and drawing the other three. Jose Mourinho doesn't believe Arsenal's unbeaten season of 2003-04 will ever be repeated in the Premier League.He added “It's not possible to remain unbeaten. This is the toughest competition in the world. It's not possible.”Here are the five teams which are capable of braking this spectacular run.Note: The views expressed in the article are of the author’s and not of Sportskeeda.

#1 Liverpool

Venue: Anfield

Date: 08-Nov-2014

Current Top Goal Scorer: Steven Gerrard & Raheem Sterling (3)

Chelsea’s impressive unbeaten run will be put to a test at Anfield in spite of Liverpool having a poor start to their season. Having managed just 8 points from their 5 home fixtures this campaign, Liverpool are currently 7th in the table.  

Liverpool vs Chelsea is a rivalry that may not be as intense as that of Liverpool against Manchester United or Chelsea vs Arsenal, but it’s certainly a fixture that would bring the best out of both teams. 

Misfiring striker Mario Balotelli, who has scored twice in the last 11 appearances, will be a massive mismatch when compared to his counterpart Diego Costa who has been in fine form.

Brendan Rodgers has a big job on his hands as he attempts to motivate his side against the leaders. Liverpool will be hoping to find some form and put in a convincing performance against Chelsea following a poor start to the season.
