Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard ensured Chelsea they will face a stern challenge in their must-win against the Reds next weekend. Liverpool, currently seventh of the Premier League, are desperately pushing for a Champions League spot, but are outsiders to finish fourth. However, the Reds' inspirational midfielder vows to fight for the win over leaders Chelsea, who are only one point ahead of Manchester United. "We have a couple of games left and the idea is to take maximum points and see if we can get into the Champions League through the back door," Gerrard told The Sun. "If we take maximum points, who knows? The teams above us might slip up. All we have done is keep the pressure on. "We won't give up but it would be stupid of me to say this or that is going to happen - it's important to be realistic. "We are underdogs for fourth position but our fans also know we've got Everton breathing down our necks and we certainly don't want them finishing above us." After clashing with Chelsea at Anfield, Liverpool visit Hull City in the final day of the season.
