Liverpool XI vs Everton – Predicted lineup and team news

Liverpool can extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to nine points with a win at Everton tonight.

Arne Slot’s first experience of the Merseyside Derby arrives at Goodison Park, in the final derby fixture to be played at the famous ground. The Reds will want a response to their disappointing FA Cup exit at the weekend. A rotated side were beaten 1-0 at Championship strugglers Plymouth, just the club’s fourth defeat of the campaign in all competitions.

Tonight’s fixture was originally postponed in December due to adverse weather conditions. Liverpool will take on a resurgent Everton, who have won three consecutive Premier League games under David Moyes. However, a 2-0 defeat to Bournemouth at the weekend also saw Everton exit the FA Cup at the fourth round.

The Toffees are looking to win successive Merseyside Derby clashes at Goodison Park for the first time in 40 years.
