Liverpool vs Everton preview and prediction: The KOP dominate.

Latest Liverpool vs Everton team news

Liverpool generally had a relatively injury-free season, but injuries at right-back are starting to cause problems for manager Slot. In the EFL Cup final, he was without all three of his first-choice right-back options as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez, and Conor Bradley were all absent.

Ryan Gravenberch and goalkeeper Alisson withdrew from international duty last week, but both suffered non-serious injuries and could return soon.

Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz, and Darwin Nunez have all been criticized 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 be benched.

On Everton's side, after a long period 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 fit for this match.

Carlos Alcaraz, Jesper Lindstrom, and Jack Harrison will compete for the wing-back position, supporting Doucoure – who received a red card in the first leg – and who will start this match.

Vitalii Mykolenko's participation remains uncertain due to a thigh injury sustained during international duty. Dominic Calvert-Lewin continues to be absent, but Armando Broja returned to play for Albania before the break and will compete with Beto for a place.

Latest football match prediction: Liverpool vs Everton

If this Merseyside derby had taken place two weeks ago, Liverpool fans probably wouldn't have dared to expect an easy home victory against their city rivals – something they're all too familiar with – after a "disastrous week" before the international break.

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

Even in their most recent Premier League home game against Southampton, Liverpool weren't particularly convincing. However, they are still cruising toward their second domestic title in five years, currently 12 points ahead of struggling Arsenal at the top of the table.

Liverpool had remained unbeaten in the Premier League since matchday 4, when they lost to Nottingham Forest at home. Since then, they had recorded 17 wins and 2 draws in their next 19 matches at Anfield, before suffering a defeat to PSG in the Champions League round of 16.

Furthermore, Liverpool have scored at least two goals in their last 15 home games in domestic competitions. The last time they failed to win a derby match 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 equalizer from Everton in the final seconds, before Abdoulaye Doucoure and Curtis Jones were sent off for scuffles 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. It is also the second most drawn derby in the league (26), only behind Chelsea - Manchester United (27).

However, a draw in this match is unlikely. While Liverpool sometimes struggle at Goodison Park, they have been completely dominant in derby matches at Anfield: winning all seven of their most recent games in attendance and remaining unbeaten in 26 matches since the beginning of the 21st century.

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

The threat of relegation is no longer a haunting one for the blue half of Merseyside for the second consecutive season, thanks to Moyes's significant impact. He has earned 17 points in just 10 games in charge – equal to the total points earned by teams currently in the relegation zone.

However, after winning the Premier League Manager of the Month award for February, Moyes' Everton showed signs of stagnation with four consecutive draws. Particularly disappointing were the two lackluster draws against Wolves and West Ham.

To date, Everton have drawn 13 of their 29 Premier League matches – representing 45% of the games played, the highest in the club's history for a single season.

Another draw would be an acceptable result, especially since Moyes has never won at Anfield. He has made a total of 19 trips there in the Premier League but has failed to win – the longest winless streak by any manager at the same stadium in the history of the league.
