Premier League Sunday 29th November, 1.30pm KO at Goodison Park
Liverpool make the short trip across Stanley Park for the 212th Merseyside Derby this Sunday, looking to get their season back on track following Champions League elimination this week.
Rafa Benitez‘s side recorded only their second win in 11 games in Hungary on Tuesday but it wasn’t enough to see them remain in Europe’s top competition. They currently sit seventh in the League and could be lower if results don’t go their way on Saturday.
Across the Park David Moyes’ side aren’t enjoying the best of seasons, sitting 14th and just three points off the relegation zone, having been defeated by Hull in midweek.
