In fact, the Reds have not made it this far since losing to Manchester City on penalties during Klopp's first season in 2016.

Liverpool face a Chelsea side who last claimed the silverware in 2015.

And it's a repeat of the 2005 final in which the Reds lost 3-2 in extra-time.

Here is all the key information needed ahead of kick-off.

Hakim Ziyech and Mateo Kovacic both were withdrawn in the second half after suffering setbacks.

There was some good news against Lille, though, as Mason Mount was fit enough to make the bench after an ankle issue. The midfielder could be in contention to start.

Ben Chilwell is sidelined for the rest of the season after undergoing knee surgery.
