Gianfranco Zola has told his Chelsea FC side to expect a completely different game when they host Liverpool FC in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

The Blues came from a goal down to book their place in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Wednesday night when Emerson and Eden Hazard netted in the second half to hand Maurizio Sarri’s men a 2-1 win.

Chelsea FC have been in fine form in the Premier League this season but Liverpool FC are currently two points clear at the top of the table heading into Saturday’s clash.

And Zola has admitted that he is hoping that Chelsea FC are able to get a similar result when they welcome Jurgen Klopp’s men to Stamford Bridge this weekend.

Speaking to Sky Sports on Wednesday night, Zola said: “Saturday will be a completely different game. I hope it is as beautiful as today.”

Hazard has been in superb form for Chelsea FC so far this season, scoring six goals and making two assists in all competitions for the west London club so far.

Chelsea FC are aiming to be one of the main challengers for the Premier League title this term after they finished in fifth place and won the FA Cup last term under Antonio Conte.
