Chelsea have another opportunity to break, but they overplay it. Instead of driving into the box, Gallagher looks to square it to Mudryk, but he has three Liverpool players around him, and the hosts come away with it.
90'
C. Jones gets yellow.
Jones really isn't happy that he didn't win the free-kick and he starts an argument with Cucurella over it. Just to add to his frustration, he's booked for dissent.
89'
Liverpool neatly pass themselves out of a tight spot on the right and Jones is through down the middle. He topples over under pressure from Azpilicueta, but doesn't get the free-kick he's looking for.
87'
Henderson has so much space ahead of him down the right and he floats a good cross towards Salah at the far post. Badiashile gets there just ahead of him to glance it on, and Chelsea look to break.
85'
Mudryk plays a one-two with Chukwuemeka and slides it back to the youngster instead of advancing into the box himself. It catches the midfielder out, and he trips over the ball. The chance goes to waste.
82'
C. Jones enters the game and replaces H. Elliott.
J. Henderson enters the game and replaces C. Gakpo.
Fabinho enters the game and replaces Stefan Bajčetić.
C. Chukwuemeka enters the game and replaces M. Mount.
Henderson replaces Gakpo.
Liverpool are also making a triple change here. Elliott is taken off first, with Jones coming on for him.
And Chukwuemeka is brought on for Mount.
And Bajcetic's Premier League debut is brought to an end as Fabinho replaces him.
81'
P. Aubameyang enters the game and replaces K. Havertz.
César Azpilicueta enters the game and replaces T. Chalobah.
It's actually going to be a triple change from Chelsea. Havertz is the first to go off, with Aubameyang replacing him.
Chalobah is still making his way around the pitch as Azpilicueta comes on in his place.
80'
T. Chalobah gets yellow.
Chalobah is trying to make the long walk across the pitch to go to the tunnel, and the referee isn't having any of it. When the defender ignores the first request to go off at the nearest point, he's booked for time-wasting.
78'
Nunez tracks back to stop Chelsea's latest attack and Liverpool break on the counter. Salah squares it to Bajcetic on the edge of the D, but Jorginho steps in with an important interception.

Description
74'
Chelsea play themselves out of trouble inside their own box, and they work it upfield well. It goes from Havertz, through Mudryk, Gallagher and Mount, who squares it to Ziyech, but his low, drilled shot is blocked by Gomez.
72'
T. Alexander-Arnold enters the game and replaces J. Milner.
Liverpool's second change sees Alexander-Arnold coming on in place of Milner.

70'
Ziyech is still getting a lot of joy down the right and he cuts inside to lose Robertson again before whipping another dangerous cross to the far post. Mudryk throws himself forward, but can't make contact on the stretch.
68'
Cucurella misjudges the bounce of Elliott's throughball and Salah is behind him to bring it under control. The Spaniard recovers quickly to nick it back off him though, and acrobatically clears his lines.
66'
J. Milner gets yellow.
Jorginho slides it through to Mudryk, who has acres of space ahead of him down the left. Milner lunges in to trip him, and takes one for the team by picking up a booking.
63'
D. Núñez enters the game and replaces N. Keïta.
Liverpool are making their first change now, and it's Keita that's going off for Nunez.
61'
Liverpool are asking for a penalty for a handball against Silva. The defender was off-balance as he made a block and fell backwards, putting his arms out to catch him. It did touch the ball, but the referee only gives a corner.
57'
It's Chelsea's first real attack of the second half and Gomez swings a leg at Ziyech's cross. His clearance goes as far as Gallagher on the edge of the box, and he takes it around the defender, but can only win a corner.
55'
M. Mudryk enters the game and replaces L. Hall.
Chelsea are making the first change of the game here and it's Mudryk that's being brought on for his debut in place of Hall.
51'
Robertson finds a pocket of space down the left and curls a deep cross to Elliott at the far post and he nods it back to Gakpo in the middle. His header is always rising though and it sails over the bar.
49'
BLOCK! Liverpool have made a really bright start to the second half and Salah gets away down the right. He clips it into the middle for Gakpo who flicks it on. Badiashile half-clears it to Thiago, whose low shot is blocked by Silva.
47'
Konate is looking to loop a long ball into the box for Gakpo, but it's nowhere near him. It does have Kepa scrambling back to his line though as it's swerving towards goal, but it bounces just wide.
46'
Liverpool get us back underway for the second half!
45' +5
HALF-TIME: LIVERPOOL 0-0 CHELSEA.
45' +3
Cucurella goes for the big switch out to Ziyech, but Robertson is back covering. He gets too much on the backpass to Alisson though, and with the Moroccan still closing him down, he slices it out for a corner, but nothing comes of it.
45' +1
Into four added minutes here and Liverpool are on the attack again. Keita lifts it out to Salah on the right and he wrongfoots Cucurella to curl a shot towards goal, but it's high and wide of the far top corner.
44'
The space opens up for Elliott down the left and he curls a teasing cross to the edge of the six-yard box. Gakpo is chasing it, but Silva gets there first to glance it out for a corner, which comes to nothing.
42'
Robertson finds himself driving through the middle when it's laid off to him by Keita, and he plays a one-two with Salah to get into the box. The return pass is just too close to Kepa though, and the keeper collects.
40'
Ziyech gets between Thiago and Elliott and curls an early cross into the box when he spots Havertz peeling off the back of Gomez. Alisson reads it well though and comes off his line to pluck it out of the air.
38'
The Reds are upping the pressure now as Milner swings in another good cross and Gakpo nods it down to Salah, who misses it on the volley. He works it back to Thiago on the edge of the box, but his effort is held by Kepa.
36'
Liverpool look to launch a quick counter down their left, working it through Robertson and Thiago before reaching Elliott. He has Chalobah tight to him though and can't spin away from him.
34'
Stefan Bajčetić gets yellow.
Bajcetic slips as Thiago passes it to him, and he slides in on Hall to try and make up for his error. He trips him and is shown the first booking of the game.
30'
Liverpool are back in possession and still patiently trying to open up Chelsea. They're keeping it well in their own half but just can't find a way through.
26'
Chelsea are still pressing high upfield and making it difficult for Liverpool to pass their way forward. Konate carries it a long way before switching it out to Elliott, but his cross is blocked.
24'
Liverpool just can't clear their lines after Chelsea's corner and Elliott ends up slicing a clearance back towards his own box. Konate nods it down to Jorginho but makes up for it by nicking it off Gallagher.
20'
Hall has a Liverpool player on either side of him, and loses the ball deep in his own half to Bajcetic. He squares it to Gakpo, who tries his luck from range with a first-time shot, but he blazes this one over too.
18'
Gakpo fizzes it forward for Salah, who is forced wide but does well to keep it in play. He tees up Milner's looping cross, but Gallagher gets in front of Thiago to clear the danger.
16'
Robertson is forced to go long with a throw-in towards Konate, but Havertz sneaks across to intercept it. He spins before sliding if forward for Gallagher, but Alisson collects, much to Liverpool's relief.
14'
Silva overhits an attempted throughball into Havertz, and Liverpool come away with it. Chelsea quickly drop back into their shape though, and the hosts are struggling to find a way through at the moment.
10'

Gallagher gets the game underway for Chelsea!
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Premier League meeting between Liverpool and Chelsea at Anfield!
It's been a tough season for both Liverpool and Chelsea, with the sides sitting 9th and 10th in the table respectively, level on 28 points and the Reds are only above them on goal difference. Jurgen Klopp takes charge of his 1000th game as a manager today having seen his side claim their first win of 2023 last time out in a 1-0 win over Wolves in their FA Cup replay - they were winless in three before that, losing both league games and conceding three times in each. Chelsea also got their first win of the new year last time out when they beat Crystal Palace. That was just their second victory in 10 Premier League games (D3 L6), but they haven't won on the road in any competition in six outings (D1 L5).
LIVERPOOL STARTING XI (4-3-3): Alisson; James Milner, Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez, Andy Robertson; Naby Keita, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara; Harvey Elliott, Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo.
LIVERPOOL SUBS: Curtis Jones, Kostas Tsimikas, Jordan Henderson, Joel Matip, Darwin Nunez, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Fabinho, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Caoimhin Kelleher.
CHELSEA STARTING XI (4-2-3-1): Kepa Arrizabalaga; Trevoh Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Benoit Badiashile, Marc Cucurella; Conor Gallagher, Jorginho; Hakim Ziyech, Mason Mount, Lewis Hall; Kai Havertz.
CHELSEA SUBS: Bashir Humphreys, Cesar Azpilicueta, Mykhailo Mudryk, Carney Chukwuemeka, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Datro Fofana, Kalidou Koulibaly, Marcus Bettinelli, Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
The teams are out on the pitch, with kick-off just moments away!
Klopp's frustration was clear on the sidelines before the half-time whistle. His side have got into some good positions without really testing Kepa, and he'll want to see a big improvement on that after the break. After a bright start, Chelsea struggled to create as many chances, but Potter will be fairly pleased with what he's seen so far.
The points are shared, with both teams moving onto 29 points. Chelsea stay in 10th, while Liverpool climb above Brentford due to their goal difference, ahead of the Bees' game against Leeds United tomorrow. Liverpool are in FA Cup action against Brighton and Hove Albion next weekend, while Chelsea aren't due to play again until early February when they host Fulham.
