This match was the 178th meeting between the two teams. Liverpool managed to win 76 wins, while Chelsea won 61 wins, and 41 other matches ended in a draw.
Playing at home will of course make Liverpool more favored over Chelsea in this match. In addition, Liverpool are also known to be quite strong when playing in front of their own supporters.
However, Liverpool still has to be vigilant considering that in their last meeting they were defeated by Chelsea at home. Moreover, Chelsea's strength has now increased with the presence of Lukaku in their attack line.
