Liverpool are currently fourth, 10 points adrift of the club they face at Anfield on Tuesday. Their FA Cup journey was ended on Saturday by Championship side Wolves.

In the reverse fixture earlier this season, Jurgen Klopp’s side were 2-1 winners at Stamford Bridge. Goals from Dejan Lovren and a Jordan Henderson curler helped Liverpool beat Chelsea, with their only goal coming through Diego Costa.
