In the 30th round of the Premier League, Liverpool FC will host their city rivals, Everton FC, at Anfield on April 2, 2025, at 20:00. The Merseyside derby is always of paramount importance, and this time it is expected to be an exciting clash.
Team performance
Liverpool:
Liverpool currently lead the Premier League table, 12 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal. Despite disappointing results on the international stage – a Champions League exit to Paris Saint-Germain and a League Cup final defeat to Newcastle United – they continue to dominate the league. They are particularly strong at home, winning 17 of their last 19 home league matches, drawing two. They have also scored at least two goals in 15 consecutive home league matches.
Everton:
Everton have stabilised under David Moyes and are now unbeaten in nine league games, their longest run since February 2017. Although they are no longer in danger of relegation, their last four games have ended in draws, a slight decline from their previous form. The team's draw ratio this season is 451 points to 45 points, the highest in the club's history.
Important missing items
Liverpool:
Liverpool have Curtis Jones suspended after being sent off in the previous derby. Thiago Alcântara and Diogo Jota are out through injury, while Mohamed Salah is a doubt with a minor injury.
Everton:
At Everton, Abdoulaye Doucouré is serving a suspension after being sent off in the previous derby. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is out with injury, while James Tarkowski is a doubt due to a previous injury.
Tactical analysis
Liverpool:
Manager Arne Slot is expected to use his usual 4-3-3 formation. If Salah is unable to play, Luis Díaz, Darwin Núñez and Cody Gakpo could form the attacking trio. Jordan Henderson, Fabinho and Harvey Elliott could be in midfield, while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson could be on the wings, with Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté providing stability in the middle.
Everton:
David Moyes is likely to go with a 4-2-3-1 formation. Up front, Dwight McNeil, Alex Iwobi and Demarai Gray will support Neal Maupay. In midfield, Idrissa Gueye and Amadou Onana will be responsible for defensive duties, while Seamus Coleman, James Tarkowski (if available), Conor Coady and Vitaliy Mykolenko will be in charge of the defence.
Weather conditions
The match is expected to be cool in Liverpool, around 10°C, with light winds. Precipitation is unlikely, so the weather will not have a significant impact on the game.
