Match Preview
The appointment of David Moyes as Everton's head coach has significantly improved the team's fortunes. The Toffees have won three consecutive league games, something they haven't achieved since April of last year. They secured home victories against Tottenham (3:2) and Leicester (4:0) and an away win over Brighton (1:0).
Notably, Everton have matched their total wins from the first 20 matches of the season in just the last three fixtures. The team now sits in 16th place in the standings, nine points clear of the relegation zone. Moreover, Everton have only lost one of their last 11 Premier League home matches by a margin of two or more goals.
Arne Slot’s Liverpool comes into this derby in excellent form, with three consecutive Premier League victories. They triumphed 2:0 away against both Brentford and Bournemouth, and thrashed Ipswich 4:1 at Anfield.
Overall, the Reds are unbeaten in their last 19 league matches (14 wins and 5 draws). Liverpool confidently tops the Premier League table, holding a six-point lead over their nearest rival, Arsenal. In 12 away matches, Liverpool has claimed nine wins and suffered three defeats.
