The Premier League features another massive game this week as Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool lock horns with their Merseyside rivals Everton at Goodison Park on Wednesday.
Everton vs Liverpool Preview
Liverpool are in third place in the Premier League standings and have been a formidable force in the league this season. Jurgen Klopp's side eased past Southampton with a 4-0 victory over the weekend and will want a similar result from this match.
Everton, on the other hand, are in 14th place in the league table at the moment and have struggled to meet expectations this year. The Toffees suffered a shock 1-0 defeat against Brentford in their previous game and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
