Liverpool prepare to entertain Chelsea at Anfield on Saturday morning, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 43 of the 61 contests.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Anfield was less than a year ago, in October 2002, the Reds carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Premiership match.
