🔬 What to Expect From Both Teams 🔥
🔵Everton | Form: W🟢W🟢L🔴W🟢D🟡:
David Moyes's side enters this clash with high defensive confidence, looking to preserve a record of 11 wins in their last 20 home league games.
Despite missing Jack Grealish and Carlos Alcaraz through injury, the Toffees boast a settled backline anchored by Tarkowski and goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
Having restricted opponents to a tiny goal average at home recently, Everton will look to frustrate the visitors and strike through Beto.
🔴Liverpool | Form: L🔴L🔴L🔴W🟢L🔴:
The Reds are looking to snap a poor run of form where they have conceded an average of 1.67 goals per match over their last six outings.
Even with absences like Joe Gomez and Wataru Endo, Liverpool still possesses world-class talent in Virgil van Dijk and playmaker Florian Wirtz.
With their top-four hopes at stake, finding clinical finishing away from home is a top priority for the technical bench this weekend.

Pickford, Keane, Tarkowski, O’Brien, Mykolenko, McNeil, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Gueye, Garner, Beto.
