There was a time for fans of both clubs when meetings between Liverpool and Chelsea were arguably the most bitter and hotly-anticipated fixtures of the calendar, above even those against their more traditional rivals.

Beginning in the Rafael Benitez and Jose Mourinho eras, the two sides faced off no fewer than 22 times in all competitions from February 2005 and April 2009, including some unforgettable Champions League showdowns.

More recently, Liverpool are currently on a ten-game unbeaten run against Chelsea in all competitions, a spell which includes seven Premier League matches and three cup final victories at Wembley - beating the Blues to lift the FA Cup once and EFL Cup twice during that run.

However, seven of those games have ended all square after 90 minutes, including a drab run of four goalless draws in a row from 2022 to 2023.

That deadlock was ended last term with an early-season 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge, before Liverpool became the first team to win this fixture since March 2021 by running out 4-1 winners on Chelsea's most recent visit to Anfield in January.

The second match of 2024 between these two sides was the EFL Cup final in February, when Virgil van Dijk's 118th-minute header saw Liverpool win the trophy, leading to proclamations that Klopp's kids had beaten Boehly's "billion-pound blue bottlejobs".

Chelsea's most recent success over Liverpool was a 1-0 win at Anfield in the league in March 2021, and the Blues have only beaten the Reds twice in their last 20 matches in all competitions.

In total, these two powerhouses of English football have locked horns on 198 occasions throughout history, and it is Liverpool that lead the head-to-head record 87 wins to Chelsea's 65, while there have also been 46 draws.

The last meeting between the two sides took place at Anfield in October 2024, with Liverpool running out 2-1 winners courtesy of goals from Mohamed Salah and Curtis Jones, with the efforts coming either side of a leveller from Nicolas Jackson.

The two leading goalscorers in this fixture both represented the Merseyside team, with Ian Rush managing to score 10 times against Chelsea, while Roger Hunt boasted nine goals.

Chelsea's highest goalscorer in matches against Liverpool is Didier Drogba, who struck nine times while turning out for the Blues against the Reds.
