Liverpool vs Everton - Premier League Preview and Odds

December 04, 2019 20:15pm - Anfield (Liverpool)

Premier League

Liverpool will look to maintain their huge advantage at the top of the Premier League table when they host arch-rivals Everton at Anfield on Wednesday night.

As the Reds found when they travelled to Old Trafford earlier this season, form can go out of the window on derby day. It took a last-second goal from Divock Origi to separate the teams in this fixture last year but Jurgen Klopp will be hoping for a more emphatic win this time around with his side eight points clear and unbeaten at the top of the table.

In truth, the Anfield side have not been at their scintillating best in recent months but they have found resilience and a never-say-die attitude that has powered them to the summit of the league. Their performances have drawn comparisons with Alex Ferguson`s Manchester United teams who never knew when they were beaten.

Liverpool are unbeaten in 47 games at Anfield and Everton would love to be the team to break that record. However, Marco Silva would probably be happy with just a point with his job hanging in the balance.

There has already been speculation that the club are eyeing up potential replacements for the Portuguese boss but it is expected they will wait until after Wednesday before acting.

The Toffees have won just two of their last 10 Premier League matches and have only won once away from home since March. They will need to raise their performance levels significantly if they are to take anything from this game.

Betting odds and tips

Everton`s last win at Anfield was 20 years ago and it is hard to make a case for that run being broken on Wednesday night. Recent games between the two have been close but Liverpool have come on top in five of the last seven at Anfield and look to be unbeatable right now. However, they have not kept a clean sheet in their last seven Premier League matches so it could be with backing the Blues to at least get on the score sheet.

You can back Liverpool to Win and Both Teams to Score at 7/4.
