MatchPre-Chelsea stats: Huge potential milestones for Klopp and Alexander-Arnold

If the Reds take three points from the Anfield encounter, Klopp will reach a double century of league wins faster than any other manager in the club's history.

The 8.15pm GMT kick-off with Mauricio Pochettino's men will be Klopp's 318th league game in charge, with Bob Paisley (355 matches), Bill Shankly (378) and Tom Watson (434) the previous Liverpool custodians to reach 200 league wins.

Read on for more facts and figures ahead of the clash with the Blues…

Trent Alexander-Arnold's next appearance for Liverpool will be his 300th in all competitions. Only Ian Rush and Emlyn Hughes have reached that figure for the club at a younger age.

Darwin Nunez is one Premier League outing away from bringing up his half-century.

Nunez is the first player this season in Europe's top five leagues to reach double figures for non-penalty goals and assists (10 each) in all competitions.

Both of last season's encounters between Liverpool and Chelsea ended 0-0 and took the number of consecutive draws in the fixture (excluding penalty shootouts) to seven.

The Reds have scored in 30 of their last 31 Premier League fixtures since the goalless draw at Stamford Bridge last April.

Liverpool have won 10 and drawn one of the 11 league games this season when they have scored the first goal.

Sixteen goals have been scored by Reds substitutes in the campaign – only five behind the club record set in 2005-06, with a minimum of 21 games still to play in 2023-24. At the same stage of last season, 10 goals had come from substitutes.

Klopp's side have already netted 30 goals from the 76th minute onwards in all games this season.

Liverpool have produced 52 goals in their 17 Anfield matches this term.

The Reds have lost only one of the last 63 domestic games at Anfield in the league and cup.
