With only four games remaining, the season is drawing to a close and Liverpool are looking likely to finish in the top five of the Premier League and playing Champions League football next season.
Next up we host Chelsea at Anfield on Saturday lunchtime. We crunch the numbers ahead of the game…
Liverpool have lost their last two Premier League games against Chelsea, as many as they had in their previous 20 (W8 D10). They last lost three in a row against the Blues between December 2013 and November 2014.
Following their 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge in October, Chelsea are looking to complete the league double over Liverpool for the first time since 2013-14.
Chelsea have won just one of their last 10 Premier League away games against Liverpool (D5 L4), a 1-0 victory in March 2021 under Thomas Tuchel.
Liverpool have lost 11 Premier League matches this season, their most since the 2014-15 campaign under Brendan Rodgers, when they lost 12. The Reds have also lost 18 in all competitions, last losing more in 2009-10 (19).
Liverpool have conceded two or more goals in 16 different Premier League matches this season – only in 2012-13 have they done so more often in a campaign (17 games).
No Liverpool player has more goals and assists combined than Dominik Szoboszlai in all competitions this season (13 goals, 10 assists). He’s the first Reds midfielder to have both 10+ goals and 10+ assists in a season since Steven Gerrard in 2013-
14 (14 goals, 14 assists).
