Defeats have come against Burnley, Brighton, Manchester City, Everton and Chelsea while Klopp’s men were also held to draws by West Brom and Manchester United. Never before this season had Liverpool lost five consecutive home matches in the Premier League. Their run of 68 unbeaten Premier League matches at Anfield before the slump was the second-longest run in English top-flight history.

Mount scored in the 42nd minute after bringing down an upfield cross from N’Golo Kante and cutting inside into the Liverpool box before finding the right bottom corner. His goal clinched Chelsea’s first win over Liverpool in five Premier League meetings. This was also their first league match win at Anfield after successive defeats. The victory took Chelsea to fourth one point clear of fifth-placed Everton.
