Everton host rivals Liverpool at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium for the first time in a crucial Merseyside derby in the Premier League.
The Toffees are in the hunt for European football and have the chance to close the gap to Liverpool to just two points, which would add more misery on under-pressure boss Arne Slot.
Liverpool suffered their 17th defeat of the season as they went out of the Champions League to holders Paris Saint-Germain in midweek, in a match that also saw them lose Hugo Ekitike to a serious injury.
Now, the Reds face a fight to secure the final Champions League qualification spot and keep a hold of fifth place, but Everton themselves could enter the race if David Moyes oversees a win against their fierce city rivals.
