The UEFA Champions League has reached it’s final stages. The semi-finals of the 2007-08 season will be played today and tomorrow. Liverpool and Chelsea will meet tonight at the Anfield Road starting with 20.45 CET. As I used you, all the important UCL games are covered live online here at the FC Football Blog. Join us starting with the kick-off for free live text commentary and live highlights from the Anfield Road. You can also watch the game on the live TV channels that broadcast it. Those live streams are displayed below.

Liverpool, as they used us in the recent seasons fight for the Champions League until the final stages, once they are outnumbered in the race for the Premier League. This season was no exception from the rule. With the 4th EPL spot assured, the Cormorants target another Champions League trophy and aim to play the third final in 4 years.

Chelsea have played a very good season although Jose Mourinho is not anymore on the bench as he usually was in the last few seasons. Avram Grant’s side doesn’t play spectacular but they do it efficiently. With important chances left for the Premier League title, The Blues will look to revenge themselves for the past eliminations suffered against Liverpool.

Liverpool vs Chelsea Head to Head
Although the recent head to head results shows that Chelsea slightly got the better of Liverpool things aren’t like that at all. Liverpool have eliminated Chelsea from the Champions League final stages last season. It was a dramatic penalty shoot-out win for the Cormorants. Rafa Benitez’s side also kicked out The Blues from the Champions league final stages in the 2004-05 season. Chelsea’s only noticeable success over Liverpool came in the Carling Cup this season, but we know that it’s not an all important competition. The most recent encounter between the two clubs ended with a goalless draw at the Stamford Bridge.

10.02.08 Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool (Premier League)
19.12.07 Chelsea 2-0 Liverpool (Carling Cup)
19.08.07 Liverpool 1-1 Chelsea (Premier League)
01.05.07 Liverpool 5-1 Chelsea (Champions League)
25.04.07 Chelsea 1-0 Liverpool (Champions League)
