Premier League leaders Liverpool face nemesis Chelsea hoping to avoid a repeat of history after the same opponent derailed their title challenge five years ago.
Chelsea were the spoilers for the Reds when they challenged for the Premier League title under Brendan Rodgers during the 2013/14 season.
Liverpool were in a fantastic position ahead of Manchester City and a draw at home to Chelsea could have been enough for the Merseysiders with two games left to play.
In the end, that Chelsea game was characterised by the infamous slip by Reds legend Steven Gerrard as they went on to lose 2-0.
The slip from Gerrard gave Chelsea the opportunity to take the lead through Denna Ba before Willian sealed the points in the dying minutes of the game.
Manchester City went on ahead Liverpool to win the title as a result of that result.
