The Reds are currently gearing up for tomorrow's Europa League clash with Rubin Kazan at Anfield.
And Bradley claims the Kazan supporters are far more excited about their trip to Anfield than they ever were for the quarter-final with the Blues in 2013.
"There’s huge excitement surrounding these games for Kazan because it’s Liverpool FC,’ Bradley told The Liverpool Echo.
"They see these two games as bigger than when they played Chelsea in the quarter-finals.
"The Kazan Arena hosted the World Swimming Championships back in July. They dug the football pitch up, put in the pool and put in temporary stands.

"They said they would eventually get around to turning it all back but there wasn’t any great rush because of the small crowds Kazan were getting.
”Then they got Liverpool in the draw. The fans demanded that the game was played in the Kazan Arena so they have taken out the pool, rushed it all through and relaid the pitch to ensure it’s ready for Liverpool’s visit.
"They have turned it back into a football stadium purely because Liverpool are coming to town."
