Chelsea, however, have only won one of their last nine matches at Anfield and lost 4-1 in this exact fixture last season.
Given their record this season, the hosts are the clear favourites in the pre-match betting markets, but the visitors have been one of the most attacking teams in the league this season.

Liverpool - Chelsea: Form Analysis
Barring a shock 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in mid-September, Liverpool have been formidable this season, notching up six wins from their first seven games.
The Reds beat Crystal Palace 1-0 ahead of the international break, a result which extended their current win streak to six matches across all competitions.
At home, the hosts have won two of their three games this term. They have also scored two or more goals on home soil in seven of their last 10 league games dating back to February.
Liverpool have conceded the fewest goals (2) and maintained the most clean sheets (5) this season!
Meanwhile, after losing their opening match to Manchester City, Chelsea have been in impressive form and are now on 14 points, trailing the league leaders by just four.
The Blues were held to a 1-1 draw by Forest last time out, though they are unbeaten in their last six league games, including four wins and two draws.
Chelsea are the second-highest-scoring team this season with 16 goals, and are one of only two sides in the division with a 100% away record after three matches on the road.
Notably, the visitors have scored 10 goals in their three away matches to date.

Liverpool & Chelsea Squad Analysis
Liverpool will have to make do without the services of their first-choice shot-stopper Alisson Becker, who sustained a hamstring injury against Palace ahead of the international break.
Joining the Brazilian on the sidelines this week is Harvey Elliott (fractured foot), while all of Alexis Mac Allister, Kostas Tsimikas and Wataru Endo are flagged as minor doubts.
Caoimhin Kelleher will therefore feature between the sticks for the Reds and Federico Chiesa has been cleared as fit to feature in the matchday squad.
Cole Palmer has contributed to 11 of Chelsea’s 16 goals this season (6 goals, 5 assists)!
Palmer will almost certainly start this match, but the same cannot be said for skipper Reece James, who is still on the road to recovery from a hamstring problem.
The Blues will also be forced into a reshuffle in defence, with both Marc Cucurella and Wesley Fofana currently suspended after crossing the yellow card threshold against Forest last time out.

Our Liverpool vs Chelsea Prediction
While Chelsea have looked very impressive in attack this season, they have not come up against a defence like Liverpool’s as yet. Indeed, the Reds have maintained a staggering five clean sheets in seven and have only conceded two goals this term.
Additionally, the league leaders have been very tough to breach on their home patch, shutting out opponents in two of their three league games at Anfield, and they will know that keeping the Blues forwards quiet here will be crucial to their chances of coming away with the victory. Our Liverpool vs Chelsea prediction: Under 3.5!
