3. Everton vs Liverpool
Liverpool visit Goodison Park on the back of a swashbuckling performance which saw them blow away Watford and emerge victorious with 5 unanswered goals. While that win would have eased off some nerves, by Sunday evening the pressure will be back on them.
That's because Manchester City, who play a day earlier, are likely to be 2 points ahead before the Merseyside derby kicks off.
Jurgen Klopp, who post the win over Watford praised his players saying: “This is how football should be played”, will hope that his team can maintain the momentum they built midweek. He would like nothing more than Liverpool returning home with all 3 points, still having fate in their hands in this tense title race.
On the other hand Everton, who haven’t beaten Liverpool since 2010, will likely still be smarting from the fortuitous 96th minute winner Divok Origi scored when these two sides met in December. While their form since then has taken a turn for the worse - losing 6 of their last 9 matches - they will still give it everything.
Everton will relish nothing more than hurting their neighbor's chances of winning the first ever Premier League title.
