Rafael Benitez will tell his Liverpool side to adopt an "offensive mentality" when they take on Chelsea on Sunday.
Benitez is eager to see his players react after Thursday's Europa League exit at the hands of Atletico Madrid.
"Chelsea are different to Atletico but we want to win so have to play with an offensive mentality," said Benitez.
Meanwhile, Sir Alex Ferguson insists Liverpool will not "throw away history" by giving Chelsea the win to scupper Manchester United's title chances.

Benitez said: ‘It will be more difficult than ever now to lift the players. We will have to check on everyone before deciding on the line-up. That is how it has left us.
‘I am proud of the effort the players put in, but now they are paying the price. It has taken a lot out of them. I thought that if we won, then adrenaline might carry us through against Chelsea.
'Instead, the players are not only very weary but very down. Our job is to try to get them ready for another big game, but it will not be easy.’
