Everton vs Liverpool prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out today?

Liverpool are hoping to make amends for that 7-2 defeat by Aston Villa before the international break as they travel to Goodison Park to take on Everton.

Liverpool will have to be wary of one of Europe’s hottest strikers in Dominic Calvert-Lewin in order to maintain their 22-match unbeaten run in games against the old enemy from across Stanley Park.  

Against no side have they ever had a longer run without defeat in their history.  

However, Everton remain top of the table three points ahead of the Reds, having won four out of four this term, going into the derby in the best form they’ve been in for many a season with the Ancelotti factor starting to kick in.
