Preview

Liverpool face arguably their toughest remaining Premier League fixture on Sunday against a Chelsea side they have not beaten in two meetings this season.

Chelsea overcame Liverpool 2-1 in the third round of the Carabao Cup in September and then held the Reds to a 1-1 Premier League draw at Stamford Bridge three days later.

Manager Jurgen Klopp is well aware of the threat of Chelsea and their main man Eden Hazard:

Liverpool top the table by two points from Manchester City, although they have played a game more than Pep Guardiola's side and know they can't afford to drop points if they are to be crowned champions.

The fixture will bring back memories of 2014, when Liverpool were on course for the title but lost 2-0 to Chelsea.

However, Klopp says his team are not thinking about the past:

Liverpool have also been boosted by the return of defenders Dejan Lovren and Joe Gomez from injury, and Klopp has welcomed the increased competition for places:

Chelsea should provide a stiff test and are also in need of all three points as they continue their battle with Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Manchester United for a place in the top four.

Sarri tried to rest some of his key stars on Thursday in the Europa League but was forced to bring Eden Hazard, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and N'Golo Kante off the bench in the second half in search of a goal.

The trio should go straight back into the starting XI, although Sarri says he has not yet decided if starlet Callum Hudson-Odoi will feature at Anfield:

Chelsea will surely need the attacking inspiration of Hazard, Hudson-Odoi and Loftus-Cheek if they are to take anything from the game at Anfield:

Liverpool are undefeated at home in the Premier League this season, but Chelsea's cup win earlier in the campaign will give them confidence they can repeat that result on Sunday.
