After two-and-a-half weeks of waiting, Liverpool is finally back in action today, and it couldn’t get much bigger as the Reds host Everton in the Merseyside derby at Anfield.
Having been away for so long, Arne Slot will be eager to shake off the defeats that saw his side’s treble and double hopes ended just before the international break as quickly as possible. Not only that, but Liverpool will be looking for revenge after dropping points in dramatic circumstances at Goodison Park in February.
Today’s game sees the Reds enter the business end of the season, with just nine games remaining. It should be a momentous run of fixtures, with Slot’s side a maximum of 16 points away from securing the Premier League title.
A win today would take them another step closer to the crown, although David Moyes’ side will certainly not be a pushover, having gone unbeaten in the league since he returned to the dugout.
