Classic match: Liverpool 3-2 Everton

Liverpool will be without defender Alberto Moreno (ankle) after he suffered a knock in midweek.

Everton welcome back defenders Phil Jagielka and Michael Keane for the Derby.

Did you know?

Everton are winless in 17 successive Premier League visits to Anfield (D8 L9), since a 1-0 win in September 1999 thanks to a Kevin Campbell goal.

Liverpool have scored four 90th minute winning goals against Everton in the Premier League - no side has scored more against a specific opponent in the competition.

Should Everton win, Sam Allardyce would have defeated Liverpool in the Premier League as a manager with four different clubs (previously with Crystal Palace, West Ham and Bolton) - the only manager to have done this so far is Harry Redknapp.

Everton's Wayne Rooney has scored only two Premier League goals at Anfield but both were winners in 1-0 victories for Man Utd (January 2005 and January 2016).

What the managers say

Jurgen Klopp: "I know a lot of Everton supporters, you meet them all day around the club, and that’s absolutely OK, I have no problem with that. But in the game, I want to see only us at our best.”
