WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The project, which cost approximately £80million ($100.7m), was due to be completed ahead of the 2023/24 season but the opening was postponed after construction firm Buckingham Group went into administration in September. Rayner Rowen Construction later took the job and the upper tier was partially opened in December during a clash against Manchester United.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The previous attendance record at Anfield was 58,757 which was during a clash against Chelsea in December 1949. Since the upper tier's partial opening, the highest attendance has been 57,548 which was against Arsenal on December 23.  </p>
