Tuchel is excited to see Lukaku play against Van Dijk this weekend.

Romelu Lukaku had a perfect start by scoring on his debut at his second spell with Chelsea against Arsenal last weekend.

Virgil Van Dijk has been on the sidelines for more than 10 months and made a return to the squad in the game against Norwich City.

The Chelsea boss is excited to see the battle between both Lukaku and Van Dijk at Anfield.

He said: “I’m looking forward it and I think many fans of football are looking forward to that battle.

“It’s not only Van Dijk against Lukaku, it will be Liverpool against Chelsea, but of course for Romelu it’s a big challenge.

“He had now one match with us which was pretty impressive and a very good start so from now on we are into details, to adapting and to connecting better and better.

“The stress test is on tomorrow at Anfield and we will see but when we signed him we knew he was a very experienced player in terms of big matches.

“He loves these kind of games and that’s why I expect the best that we can see from him right now. I am not sure if he has already reached top level, maybe not because he has only one game in his legs, but hopefully he will have a good match tomorrow because he’s a tough competitor and he loves to play in these kind of matches against a strong opponent.”
