Andriy Shevchenko's dreams have twice been shattered by Liverpool and Sunday he is determined to get his own back.

Shevchenko suffered heartache in the epic 2005 Champions League final, in Istanbul, missing the vital penalty when the Reds came from 3-0 down to beat AC Milan in a shoot-out. The Merseysiders then wrecked his Chelsea debut in last month's FA Community Shield, when the Ukrainian scored but ended up losing 2-1.

Shevchenko, 29, said: "In my first game for Chelsea, we lost to them and now it's important to win. I scored but my team lost and it is important to win in this game. It's a difficult game - Liverpool are a big club and a good team."
