The Reds travel to Germany on Wednesday to face Dino Toppmoller’s Eintracht Frankfurt side.
After a convincing defeat to Bayern Munich in the opening week, Chelsea bounced back with a vital win against Benfica before the international break.
Enzo Maresca and his side will look to continue their recent momentum as they play host to Ajax, led by former Everton defender Johnny Heitinga.
With four points from an available six, it has been a fantastic start to UCL life for Thomas Frank.

What are the best bets for Eintracht Frankfurt vs Liverpool?
Liverpool to win
Liverpool enter this game in their worst form under Slot. Failure to win again on Wednesday is not an option for the Reds, who desperately need to get back to winning ways.
Slot’s side should have too much quality for Frankfurt on this occasion, as Hugo Ekitike makes an emotional return to his former employers.
Mohamed Salah to score or assist
Mohamed Salah began his UCL campaign in fine form, with one goal and one assist to his name against Atletico Madrid.
The Egypt international hasn’t had the start to the season we are accustomed to seeing from him, but Wednesday acts as a fantastic opportunity for Salah to get back amongst the goal contributions.
What are the best bets for Chelsea vs Ajax?
Chelsea to win
The Blues enter this game in a fantastic run of form, winning four of their last five matches in all competitions.
Despite a troublesome time with respective injuries and suspensions, their strength in depth has proven to be more than capable of picking up points, and Wednesday should be no different.
Kenneth Taylor to have 1+ shots on target
Kenneth Taylor is the heartbeat of this Ajax team, with Heitinga becoming increasingly reliant on the 23-year-old.
The Netherlands international has hit this line in his last four matches, including Ajax’s away defeat against Marseille in the last round of UCL fixtures.
What are the best bets for AS Monaco vs Tottenham?
Both teams to score
Both sides are coming into this game with great offensive pedigree, combining direct wing-play with a potency up front.
This reflects in their opening UCL matches, where both sides have scored in three out of the four matches these teams have appeared in.
Maghnes Akliouche to have 1+ shots on target
Now a key figure in the France international set-up, Maghnes Akliouche comes into this game brimming with confidence.
Despite being unable to turn chances into contributions in Europe, Akliouche has registered three shots on target in his opening two matches.
