Everton vs. Liverpool: Premier League – Match Preview

The first Merseyside derby of the season takes place on Saturday as winless Everton entertain Liverpool.

Everton recorded a third consecutive 1-1 draw on Tuesday evening after they were held away at Leeds United.

Anthony Gordon’s opening goal was cancelled out by a first Leeds goal for Luis Sinisterra.

Liverpool recovered from a goal down to beat Newcastle United, with Fabio Carvalho scoring a 98th minute winner.

Newcastle debutant Alexander Isak gave the visitors a surprise lead, before Roberto Firmino continued his fine form with the equaliser.
