Jürgen Klopp’s side visits their neighbour rivals after a crucial 3-1 victory over Fulham on the weekend. Besides the result, the Reds were also able to give some much-needed rest to some of their key players which will come in handy for the final games of the season.
Liverpool will enter the pitch with the chance to apply more pressure on Manchester City. If the Reds can emerge victorious in their visit to Goodison Park the Cityens would be four points behind them but with two fewer games played, giving them the chance to take back their lead.
Everton will start the game with a breath of fresh air after a crucial 2-0 win over Nottingham Forrest. The Toffees beat a direct rival in the relegation battle and built a 5-point gap to the red zone with a game in hand.
Sean Dyche knows they are still not safe from relegation and will have his team fight for every single point until that target is secured. Even though it is a serby game at home and the fans would like nothing more than to secure their maintenance and spoil Liverpool’s title chances in the process, the team will be smart going into the game and understand a draw is also a great result.

Everton vs Liverpool Prediction
Liverpool win at 1.45
Liverpool has to win every single game remaining if they want to stand a chance to lift the Premier League title in Klopp’s last season as manager. The Merseyside Derbies always create a special atmosphere and motivation for both teams. However, Liverpool cannot afford to drop points against a bottom-of-the-table team, no matter the circumstances.
The Reds have been on a great run against Everton with five consecutive encounters without defeat with (four wins and a draw). A very worrying stat for the Toffees is that their last home victory in a Merseyside Derby came back in 2010.
Everton vs Liverpool Tips
Both teams score, no at 2.05
In their last five Merseyside Derbies, Everton has failed to score against Liverpool. Dyche will not be too worried about this since his plan will most probably focus on keeping Liverpool from scoring themselves and closing the shop with a 0-0 draw.

Four out of the last six derbies played at Goodison Park have ended up in a 0-0 draw. A clear demonstration of how tight the Merseyside Derbies at Everton’s ground has been over the last years and a glimpse of hope for the Toffees.
