The Premier League is back in action with another edition of the Merseyside Derby this week as Liverpool take on local rivals Everton in a crucial encounter at Anfield on Wednesday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will want to win this game.
Liverpool vs Everton Preview
Liverpool are at the top of the Premier League standings and have been in excellent form this season. The home side slumped to a damaging 2-1 defeat at the hands of Newcastle United last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Everton, on the other hand, are in 15th place in the league table and have struggled to make an impact so far this season. The Toffees were held to a 1-1 draw by West Ham United in their previous game and will look to take it up a notch this week.
