Liverpool will be hoping its city rival can do it a favor in the title race as Everton hosts Arsenal in the Premier League later.
David Moyes’ side will be hoping to bounce back from a controversial derby defeat at Anfield, and move above Tottenham and Manchester United in the table in the process. And while they may not like to, the Toffees could help their neighbors move closer to being crowned champions.
Arsenal will be aiming to narrow the gap to Liverpool to nine points for at least 24 hours, with Arne Slot’s side traveling to Fulham on Sunday. Mikel Arteta’s hopes of winning the title are looking faint, but the Gunners boss will at least look to push the Reds as far as they can.
