The "Red Army" Liverpool will travel to challenge the "Blue Lions" Chelsea in the new round of the Premier League, and Gravenberch said in an interview that he believes Liverpool will get out of the blow of past defeats.
In the last round of the Premier League, Liverpool equalized the game with a goal from Chiesa after leading by one, but conceded another goal in the final moments and ultimately lost 1-2 to Crystal Palace away from home. Having failed to maintain their unbeaten streak, Liverpool currently sits at the top of the table with 15 points, but Slaughter's team must win all three points to maintain their top spot.
In addition, Liverpool lost 0-1 to Galatasaray in the key match of the second round of the UEFA Champions League earlier, suffering two consecutive defeats in all competitions.
Liverpool midfielder Gravenberch said, "It's definitely not a good thing for a team like Liverpool to lose two games in a row. But I think we have completed the analysis well, and now the game against Chelsea is waiting for us. We will prepare for it and do everything we can to win this game. Of course it's not good to lose two games in a row, but like I said, we will do our best to win, prepare well and go all out. This is the only thing we can do."
"Sometimes the situation will develop in the direction you want, but this time it was not the case. We still created a lot of chances, but we just couldn't turn them into goals. But I believe we can do it, I believe we can get out of this situation."
As for Chelsea, Maresca's team is currently ranked 8th in the standings, having suffered losses in the last two league rounds. In terms of head-to-head record, Liverpool has 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 5 matches against Chelsea.
Gravenberch said: "We know Chelsea is a very strong team with good players, and I know it will be a difficult game. This is actually my first time to participate in a game at Stamford Bridge. I have never played there, so I am looking forward to it.
"Alisson's absence is a huge loss because for me he is the best goalkeeper in the world. But we also know the quality of Mamardashvili and he has shown his qualities. He has been doing very well in training and I am sure he will perform at a high level for us."
