Brendan Rodgers has called on Liverpool
to banish memories of their last home
meeting with Chelsea and kickstart their
season on Saturday.
Captain Steven Gerrard slipped as Demba
Ba stole in to open the scoring at Anfield
last term, with Jose Mourinho's men
going on to win 2-0 and dent Liverpool's
dreams of winning their first Barclays
Premier League title.
The Merseysiders headed into that fixture
in April top of the table and on the back of
an incredible 11-match winning streak,
but eventually lost out on the title to
Manchester City by two points after
succumbing to Chelsea and drawing their
next match with Crystal Palace.
"When we play at Anfield, no matter the
opponent, we have every confidence we
can go on and get a result"
Brendan RodgersLiverpool's form going
into this season's fixture at Anfield is in
stark contrast to back then, though, as
they sit 12 points behind unbeaten BPL
leaders Chelsea after just 10 matches.
But Rodgers believes this meeting with
Mourinho's side could provide a
springboard for the remainder of their
season.
"This weekend's game against Chelsea is
obviously a big game," he said. "We'll have
learnt from last season's defeat to them,
it'll be tough though. They're the best
team in the league at the moment, that's
why they are top of the league.
"When we play at Anfield, no matter the
opponent, we have every confidence we
can go on and get a result. This game
offers us a great chance at home to get a
result and can kick-start the season for
us."
The match will unquestionably stir some
bad memories for Gerrard, but Rodgers
says his skipper deserves credit for the
way he has recovered from his untimely
slip at Anfield.
"I think Gerrard recovering mentally
shows the magnificent response from
him," he continued. "There was no blame,
[it was] just unfortunate.
"He was instrumental to our run last year
and how well we played. He's a big
character and bounced back well from
that."
Chelsea, four points clear of Southampton
at the top, were chasing Liverpool when
the sides met in April, but with the roles
reversed this time around, defender
Branislav Ivanovic believes the change of
circumstances will make for a completely
different encounter.
"Last season was completely different
from this one," he remarked. "It was three
games to go, they were fighting for the
title and they wanted to win - they
struggled in a must-win.
"Now we are top of the table. We know
it's difficult at Anfield, but also our team
knows how to win there. We know what
we have to do.''
Liverpool manager Rodgers has hinted he
could ring the changes once again, with
the likes of Gerrard and Raheem Sterling
likely to return after being rested for the
Reds' 1-0 defeat by Real Madrid in their
UEFA Champions League encounter at the
Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday.
"This isn't a computer game," he said.
"We're dealing with the reality of lots of
games in a short space of time. We need
to make changes."
Daniel Sturridge (calf) remains sidelined
for Rodgers' side, while Chelsea's Loic
Remy (muscle) is likely to be missing and
John Obi Mikel (knee) is a doubt.
