You will have to go back nearly two years to find the last time Liverpool suffered a league defeat on home soil.
The date was April 23 2017 when Sam Allardyce’s Crystal Palace rocked into town and claimed a superb 2-1 victory at Anfield, all thanks to a brace from former Red Christian Benteke.
Liverpool haven’t looked back since, with their remarkable home run now standing at 36 games – with two clubs having a better record in the Premier League.
Chelsea went on an incredible, and seemingly, unbeatable 86-game streak spanning a four-year period.
It all started when Claudio Ranieri led his side to victory over Fulham in March 2004, with the gargantuan run coming to an end against none other than Liverpool back in October 2008.
Xabi Alonso’s deflected 10th minute effort put Luiz Felipe Scolari’s side to the sword, after a prolonged unbeaten spell under Jose Mourinho and then Avram Grant.
