Liverpool Preview
It was undoubtedly an unexpectedly bad season for the team led by Jürgen Klopp. The team is in tenth place in the Premier League, and it is 21 points behind Arsenal and 11 behind the qualification places for the next Champions League. Moreover, it has already been eliminated from the FA Cup and League Cup. All that remains then is the Champions, although at this rate, the team’s chances of lifting it for the seventh time seem a little distant.
Although the team’s performance has long since dropped, it should also be noted that in recent weeks the team has suffered many significant losses. The good news for German coach is that Virgil Van Dijk, Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino and Arthur Melo returned to training with the squad this week; the bad news is that they will not be ready to take the field against Everton.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Alisson; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip, Joe Gomez, Andrew Robertson; Naby Keita, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcántara; Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Darwin Núñez.
Everton Preview
Everton has 18 points and is in 18th place in the standings, occupying relegation places. If we review the last five matches played, the Blues have only one draw, three defeats (in a row) and only one victory.
Ah, what a victory! That win was a totally unexpected one against none other than Arsenal, whom the team defeated at home 1-0 with a goal by James Tarkowski. Everton played very intelligently, although they had just 29% of the ball possession. Indeed, the Gunners managed to reach Jordan Pickford’s goal posing danger only three times.
Sean Dyche, the coach who made his debut last weekend in place of Frank Lampard, is expected to field the same starting 11 as last week.
Probable lineup (4-5-1): Jordan Pickford; Séamus Coleman, Conor Coady, James Tarkowski, Vitali Mykolenko; Dwight McNeil, Abdoulaye Doucouré, Idrissa Gueye, Amadou Onana, Alex Iwobi; Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
JefeBet Prediction
Last week it seemed impossible that Wolverhampton, much weaker than Liverpool, would win by three goals. So much for Everton’s victory over the leaders, who had not lost since September of 2022.
Those are some of the reasons why soccer is so beautiful, and at JefeBet we believe that this boost of confidence will give Everton the strength to resist Liverpool’s attacks. The team will not repeat the feat against Arsenal, but it will earn a valuable point at Anfield, hostile territory for anyone wearing a blue shirt. After all, we are talking about two intimate enemies separated by much more than the 900 meters between their respective homes.
Prediction: Liverpool and Everton draw 1-1.
