Comments and predictions for Liverpool vs Everton: The KOP is invincible

Latest Liverpool vs Everton team information

Liverpool have generally had a relatively lean season, but injuries at right-back are starting to cause problems for Slot, who was without his top three options in the EFL Cup final with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley all missing.

Ryan Gravenberch and goalkeeper Alisson withdrew from international duty last week, but neither's injuries are serious and they could return soon.

Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez have all come under criticism recently, but one of them will still be selected to start alongside Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo. Despite scoring in the cup final, Federico Chiesa may still have to start on the bench.

As for Everton, after a long period of struggling with injuries, they are gradually regaining their strongest squad. Iliman Ndiaye and Dwight McNeil have returned to training, although they are unlikely to be able to play in this match.

Carlos Alcaraz, Jesper Lindstrom and Jack Harrison will compete for the winger slot, supporting Doucoure – who was sent off in the first leg – and will start this match.

Vitalii Mykolenko remains a doubt due to a thigh injury sustained on international duty. Dominic Calvert-Lewin remains absent, but Armando Broja returned to action for Albania before the break and will compete with Beto for a place.

Latest Liverpool vs Everton football commentary

Had this Merseyside derby been played two weeks ago, Liverpool fans might not have dared to expect an easy home win against their city rivals – something they are all too familiar with – after a disastrous week before the international break.

Arne Slot's side were knocked out of the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain at Anfield on Tuesday, then lost the EFL Cup final to Newcastle United on Sunday, ending their treble hopes abruptly and leaving them with only one competition to play for in the final two months of the season.

Even in their most recent Premier League home game against Southampton, Liverpool were not exactly convincing. However, they are still on course for their second league title in five years, with a 12-point lead over struggling Arsenal at the top of the table.

Liverpool have not lost a Premier League game since round four, when they lost at home to Nottingham Forest. Since then, they have won 17 and drawn two of their next 19 games at Anfield, before losing to PSG in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Liverpool have scored at least two goals in their last 15 home league games, the last time they failed to win either derby in the same season was in 2020-21 – a season played behind closed doors.

The first leg in February was a tense encounter, ending with a dramatic Everton equaliser in the dying seconds, before Abdoulaye Doucoure and Curtis Jones were sent off for a brawl after the final whistle.

With that situation, the Merseyside derby continued to increase the record for the number of red cards in Premier League history – now at 25. This is also the match with the second most draws in the tournament (26), only behind Chelsea - Manchester United (27).

However, the chances of a draw in this game are slim. While Liverpool have struggled at Goodison Park at times, they have been absolutely dominant in derbies at Anfield: winning all seven of their last games with spectators and going unbeaten in 26 games since the turn of the century.

Everton have become a different team under David Moyes. They are currently on a nine-game unbeaten run in the Premier League – their longest since February 2017.

The threat of relegation has been lifted for the Blues of Merseyside for the second season running, with Moyes having a huge impact. He has won 17 points in just 10 games in charge – the same as the entire season's total of the teams currently in the relegation zone.

However, after receiving the Premier League Manager of the Month award for February, Moyes' Everton have shown signs of slowing down with four consecutive draws. Especially two lackluster draws against Wolves and West Ham.

Everton have drawn 13 of their 29 Premier League games so far – 45% of the games played, the highest in the club's history in a single season.

Another draw would be an acceptable result, especially as Moyes has never won at Anfield. He has visited the club 19 times in the Premier League without a win – the longest such run by a manager visiting the same ground in the history of the competition.
