Chelsea's trip to Liverpool looks set to be one of the biggest games of the season so far with potentially huge implications for both teams.
While the Blues continue their fight for a place in the Premier League top four, the Reds find themselves in a head-to-head tussle with Manchester City to get their hands on the top prize come the end of the season.
The west London side have an impressive recent record at Anfield, and while Liverpool will be favourites for this one, there's one man who could make the difference for Maurizio Sarri's side.
Eden Hazard has been in stunning form so far this term, and speaking ahead of the game Jurgen Klopp said that he regards the Belgian as one of the best.
Klopp said: "On his day he [Hazard] can be the world’s best immediately.
“He has had a brilliant career so far and he is one of the things I like a lot of football.

“He is a good player but with all good players, they have to play against us and we will try everything to deny a couple of his skills and that will help us.”
Klopp added: "We will try to make sure he doesn’t shine.
“Reading the game and reading passes to him, reacting a little better - it’s not easy - but in some situations you can’t defending and hopefully help will come in from somewhere else.”
