The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as Everton lock horns with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side in an important clash at Anfield on Monday.
Liverpool vs Everton Preview
Everton are currently in 18th place in the Premier League standings and have struggled to cope with their league opponents this season. The Toffees edged Arsenal to a crucial 1-0 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
Liverpool, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best this season. The Merseyside giants slumped to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Liverpool vs Everton Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Liverpool have a good historical record in the Merseyside derby and have won 123 out of the 292 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Everton's 83 victories.

Liverpool vs Everton Prediction
Liverpool have been in dismal form this season and cannot afford another debacle in this fixture. Jurgen Klopp's charges have flattered to deceive in the Premier League and will need to prove their mettle in the Merseyside derby.
Everton showed plenty of heart against Arsenal and have already shown signs of improvement under Sean Dyche. Liverpool are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.
