The blues switch focus back to the EPL off the back of a comprehensive 4:0 victory in the FA Cup against Brentford on Saturday. The blues head Anfield with an eight point cushion over fellow title aspirants needing victory to at least kill off the Red's chances of winning the title this season.

Liverpool are the only side this season to have beaten the blues at Stamford Bridge this season  but has suffered a severe dip form since the turn of the year winning only once (against Plymouth) and loosing three consecutive home games,the most recent coming against Wolverhampton on Saturday.

After a 2:1 loss in September Conte remarked Liverpool were the better team with Chelsea lurking in fifth place but fast-forward five months and Chelsea have defied odds to sit comfortably atop the summit.

Matip and Henderson scored for Liverpool on that occasion while Diego Costa continued his fine form with a close finish in the 61st minute.
