THE PREDICTION
Liverpool enter this Merseyside derby following a crucial and hugely morale boosting 0-2 victory over RB Leipzig in the Champions League in midweek. Everton meanwhile, were beaten 1-3 by Man City a day later in the Premier League. Despite the poor domestic form of the reigning Premier League champions Carlo Ancelotti’s side face a huge task to get anything out of this fierce derby. The Toffees have not won at Anfield in the Premier League since 1999 and have a number of injury concerns ahead of this one, with doubts over the likes of striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin and attacking midfielder James Rodriguez. Jurgen Klopp’s Reds may have lost their last three league matches, but an occasion such as this is sure to bring out the best in his players. With confidence restored to the Liverpool camp following their Leipzig victory along with an extra day of rest compared to their opponents, the hosts should be able to take the bragging rights in Merseyside with an important three points in this one.
