That home run begins on Sunday when Tottenham visit, with clashes against Chelsea, Huddersfield and a final day meeting against Wolves to follow.However, Klopp is not banking on home comforts as a guarantee Liverpool‘s remaining schedule will be easier than their rivals.Two of our opponents are Tottenham and Chelsea,” he said at his press conference on Friday. We love playing at Anfield, we want the people on their toes with brilliant atmospheres, but we still respect the opponents.While Klopp is playing down Liverpool’s fixture list, there can be no denying that Anfield has become a fortress over the past couple of seasons.In fact, you have to go back to April 2017, 36 home matches ago, for the last time they suffered a defeat, falling 2-1 to Crystal Palace courtesy of a Christian Benteke double.Liverpool last lost at home to Crystal Palace in 20172

Should they avoid a loss to Spurs on Sunday, they will move level with Man City for the most games without defeat at home.Between 2010 and 2012, the current Premier League champions went 37 league matches without losing at the Etihad.While both of those statistics are undeniably impressive, Liverpool will have some way to go before reaching Chelsea’s all-time record of 86 matches unbeaten at Stamford Bridge set between 2004-2008.
