Liverpool vs Everton: FW Predictions
Premier League predictions for the second Merseyside derby of the season. Both Liverpool and Everton have endured disappointing seasons so far but a win in the Merseyside derby would lift spirits and could provide a platform to start a good run of form in the Premier League.
Contents
Under 2.5 Goals
We're predicting a tight and tense Monday night derby at Anfield between two clubs struggling to find their form. Under 2.5 goals have been produced in five of the last seven meetings between the two clubs in all competitions, including the goalless draw at Goodison Park back in September. Fewer than three goals have been scored in two of Liverpool's last four outings as well as in three of Everton's last five league games, adding further weight to our prediction.
Draw
Three of the last five league meetings between Liverpool and Everton have ended in stalemates, and we're predicting another draw on Monday night. Neither side can claim to be in good form right now with Liverpool losing three, drawing two and winning just one of their last six matches in league and cup. Everton have lost four, drawn one and won won of their last six matches but did beat the league leaders Arsenal last time out which will give them a huge boost in confidence.

It's no surprise to see that Liverpool are the favourite to win the Merseyside derby given Everton's dire record against their local rivals, especially at Anfield. If you want to back a First Goalscorer in this game then the bookmakers' selections are Salah or Nunez at 9/2 (5.50) – 18.2% but if you wanted to back an Everton player to score first then Calvert-Lewin is priced at 9/1 (10.00) – 10%.
How will the teams lineup for Monday's Merseyside Derby?
Liverpool
Klopp and the Liverpool players endured one of their darkest days of the season so far as they were thrashed 3-0 away at struggling Wolves. An own goal from the uninspiring Matip set Wolves on their way to victory and a debut goal from defender Dawson made it 2-0 after just 12-minutes. In the second half, Wolves scored a neat third goal in the 71st-minute through Neves to wrap up the 3pts. Diaz, Melo, Konate, Jota, Firmino and van Dijk are unlikely to make an appearance in the derby but Tavares could feature if he recovers from a virus.
Predicted Lineup – Alisson (GK), Matip, Robertson, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold, Bajčetić, Thiago, Henderson, Salah, Gakpo & Núñez
Everton
Sean Dyche's first game in charge of the Toffees proved to be a huge success. The former Burnley boss went with a 4-4-1-1 formation that proved hard for Arsenal to break down and created a lot more going forward than the Goodison Park faithful have seen all season long. In the end, a second-half header from a corner settled all 3pts in the direction of a much-welcomed Everton side who will now be hoping to build upon this momentous win with a positive result at Anfield. Garner, Townsend and Patterson have been ruled out of Monday's match but Calvert-Lewin and Keane are expected to make the squad.
Predicted Lineup – Pickford (GK), Coleman, Tarkowski, Coady, Mykolenko, Gueye, Doucouré, Onana, Iwobi, Calvert-Lewin & McNeil

Player to Watch: Conor Coady
The Liverpool fan showed his commitment to Everton in the last Merseyside derby when he thought he had scored the winner and celebrated wildly only for the goal to be ruled offside. The 29-year-old on-loan from Wolves has built up a decent partnership with Tarkowski at the heart of the Everton defence and the pair put in top performances to keep the Arsenal defence quiet last time out.
Coady is going to have to have another good game on Monday night if Everton are to get anything out of the game as Liverpool have so much quality in the final third. Coady is a leader and will be asked to marshall the Everton defence under what is expected to be a lot of pressure from the Liverpool forwards and midfielders. Keeping Everton tight at the back keeps them in the game and if they can do the basics right at one end of the pitch, there is always a chance that Dyche can make it two games unbeaten.
