Liverpool are working to bring "the full force of the law" against anybody who engages in chants about the Hillsborough disaster.
The Reds released a statement on Thursday which indicated they were "saddened by the recent rise in vile chants".
This comes in the wake of a minority of Manchester City fans interrupting a minutes silence during their FA Cup semi-final clash last Saturday.

"Liverpool FC is saddened by the recent rise in vile chants about the Hillsborough disaster", the club statement read.
"We know the impact these abhorrent slurs have on the families of the 97, those who survived, and all associated with this club.
"We are working with the relevant authorities to do our utmost to ensure these chants are eradicated from football altogether and, where appropriate, bring the full force of the law and the game’s sanction process down on those who continue to sing them."
Manchester City had previously released a statement condemning the actions of some of their fans.
City manager Pep Guardiola said: "This is not Manchester City. We are close to Liverpool for the tragedy that happened years ago. We are alongside them. (The chants) don’t represent what we are."
