Liverpool and Everton will face on Sunday at 05.15 pm at Anfield Road. The match will be pleayed for the 14th day of Premier League.

Liverpool have to move on after the loss against PSG in Champions League. Klopp’s team has already the chance to come back on the right path since this Sunday the Merseyside derby will take place. It’s not going to be an easy test for the Reds, Everton lost only one of their last eight matches. They are currently in the sixth place in Premier League while Liverpool is just two points far from Manchester City.

During his press conference, Everton coach Marco Silva said: “I don’t look to one match. We will respect our opponents like we did against Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea. Fear is something that doesn’t come inside our locker room. Respect, yes, but we don’t change anything in our way. We won’t change our ambition or style of play. It is important to enjoy the moment and be strong. We want to win the match and nothing more”. On the other hand, Klopp feels ready to bounce back from PSG defeat.

Despite a bad performance in the midfield last Wednesday and the absence of Jordan Henderson, the German coach ensures that his team is 100% ready for the upcoming derby in order to continue the chase to the table-topping team Manchester City.
