Liverpool have now gone an incredible 51 games unbeaten at home in the Premier League after yesterday's win over Sheffield United.

Anfield has notoriously been a fortress for Liverpool throughout their history but during the Premier League years that had somewhat diminished.
But Klopp has helped restore the famous ground to all it's glory in recent years with some astute signings which has seen them since win the Champions League and become world champions.
The one that truly matters is the Premier League though and they're looking increasingly likely to do it this year having opened a 13-point gap at the top of the table.
They have amazingly only dropped two points all season and have won all 11 matches at Anfield in the league - a total of 41 victories since their defeat to Palace back in April 2017.
