The city of Liverpool comes to a standstill this afternoon for a Merseyside Derby with massive implications at the top end of the table.
David Moyes has guided Everton into the top 10, and a positive result here could move them within touching distance of the top five.
The Toffees come into the match off the back of a 2-2 draw with Brentford and are unbeaten in their last two home fixtures.
Liverpool, meanwhile, sit fifth with 52 points but arrive under pressure following a 2-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, which confirmed their exit from Europe.
Everton have won just one of their last 14 Premier League home games against Liverpool, though 10 of those games have finished level (L3).

Beto gets the nod up front. He has been involved in five goals in his last five Premier League appearances (4 goals, 1 assist), with only Bruno Fernandes (7) involved in more since the start of this run on 28th February, while no player has scored more goals in that time; he’s level with Brentford’s Igor Thiago.
