Andrew Robertson: 'Liverpool can come out on top'

Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson insists that his side can claim victory in Saturday's Premier League meeting with Chelsea.

Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson has insisted that his side can claim victory in Saturday's Premier League meeting with Chelsea.

Scotland captain Robertson was replaced by Alberto Moreno for the midweek Carabao Cup defeat to Maurizio Sarri's side, but the left-back is expected to be reinstated by Jurgen Klopp at Stamford Bridge.

Speaking to Liverpool's official website, Robertson said that the league encounter will be a "completely different game".

"The only positive we can take [from midweek] is that we play them so soon after and we can try to put it right. It's a completely different game," the 24-year-old said. "We've lost home advantage because it's at Stamford Bridge, and I think it'll be two different teams. But other than that, it's the same two clubs playing. We look forward to it. It'll be a big game and hopefully we can come out on top by the end of it.

"Last year, especially away from home I don't think we were quite good enough against the big teams. We drew against Arsenal but other than that we got beat in them all, which was disappointing. Chelsea was the last one we played, just after we got into the Champions League final, and we struggled that day with everything rolled into one. They were better than us.

"We've already put that right by beating Tottenham Hotspur, which was a bad result last season. Hopefully we can do that again on Saturday because it was disappointing last season. You just look to put these things right and because you're playing against one of your closest rivals it has that bit bigger swing to it."

Robertson has provided three assists for his teammates so far this season.
