Ahead of tonight's Emirates FA Cup third-round tie away at Exeter City, here are 14 key facts you should know about the game from club statistician Ged Rea…
The two sides have met once previously in the FA Cup. Liverpool won 3-1 in the fourth round in 1950 on their way to a Wembley meeting with Arsenal.
The other four meetings all came in the League Cup, with the Reds winning them all.
The last clash between the teams came in August 2011 when Liverpool won 3-1 at St. James Park. Luis Suarez, Maxi and Andy Carroll were on target for the Reds with Exeter scoring a late consolation from the penalty spot.
The Reds are seven-times winners of this competition, last lifting the trophy in 2006 after beating West Ham on penalties in Cardiff.
Liverpool have won six of their last eight away games in this competition - including all four last season.
