28'

Drinkwater continues to bomb forward with late runs from deep. Kante again clips a ball through towards his run. It's over-hit but Liverpool are allowing him too much freedom.

27'

Salah receives the ball with his back to goal. He's up against Cahill but manages to wriggle free before seeing a shot brilliantly blocked by Christensen.

26'

Liverpool have bossed possession but Chelsea have come to life in recent moments and look very dangerous on the break and from set pieces.

25'

So close for the visitors! Liverpool don't deal with the right-wing corner. Cahill keeps it alive and then it's a case of pinball. The hosts do their best to gift a goal to the champions, but it doesn't quite fall. Eventually the Reds survive.

24'

A busy period for Mignolet continues as he beats away Davide Zappacosta's fierce drive from the right o the area.

23'

Mignolet with more great work as he rushes out to deny Drinkwater after the midfielder had made a clever run onto Hazard's through pass.

22'

Hazard fires the corner into the middle. Liverpool don't look comfortable dealing with it, but Chelsea can't capitalise.

21'

Hazard cuts inside from the left on a Chelsea counter attack and wastes little time rasping in a low effort that Mignolet is forced to push past his right-hand post.

20'

19'

STAT: This is the 55th meeting between the teams in all competitions since the turn of the century.

18'

Azpilicueta produces some alert defending to cut out Gomez's cross with Sturridge lurking in the danger zone.

17'

More Liverpool pressure. Chelsea content to sit deep and stay organised.

15'

Liverpool break and the Ox lays it across for Sturridge, who can't control, but Milner arrives to volley horribly wide.

14'

Drinkwater is making his first PL start for Chelsea this evening. He surges forward onto Kante's pass, but opts against the shot and sees his ball to the right cut out.

12'

Coutinho engineers space for Moreno to burst free on the left. The left back has time but over-hits his cross and the opportunity to test that Blues rearguard is wasted.

11'

10'

Sturridge lays it off smartly towards Salah who takes a couple of touches before curving a 25-yard shot way over Courtois' bar.
