Liverpool drives a short distance to Goodison in the Premier League on Saturday
Luckily there've been no injury concerns over the break , the Merseyside derby at Goodison in the last three Premier League seasons have produced no goals but Jurgen Klopp's men will have a huge task to accomplish looking at how they gutted their fans in a humiliating 7-2 defeat to Aston Villa last weekend.
In a glimpse into the fixture history, we inferred that Saturday's 288th Merseyside derby will mark the 10-year anniversary of Everton's last victory over the Reds, while it will also be five years to the day since Jurgen Klopp took charge of Liverpool for the first time.
The derby is presumably one of the most difficult to call for a number of years with Premier League leaders and in-form Everton set to entertain wounded champions Liverpool at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon.
