Our predictions for Liverpool vs Everton

Match Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Everton

Liverpool's recent form suggests they will dominate possession and create numerous scoring opportunities against Everton. Their last four league matches have all resulted in victories, with a strong defensive record and an ability to score crucial goals, as seen in their 3-2 win against Newcastle United. 

Everton, on the other hand, has shown resilience, particularly in their home draw against Aston Villa and their away win against Wolverhampton Wanderers. However, their loss to Leeds United indicates potential vulnerabilities that Liverpool could exploit, especially given the Reds' current momentum.

The match is likely to be competitive, with Everton's recent performances showing they can hold their own against strong teams. 

Yet, Liverpool's consistent winning streak and their ability to secure narrow victories, as demonstrated in their 1-0 wins against Burnley and Arsenal, suggest they have the edge. Everton's defensive solidity could keep the scoreline close, but Liverpool's attacking prowess should ultimately see them through.

Lineups & Tactical Setup

Predicted Liverpool (4-2-3-1)

  • Alisson, Szoboszlai, Van Dijk, Konaté, Kerkez, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo, Ekitiké

Liverpool's predicted lineup suggests a focus on maintaining a strong defensive core with Van Dijk and Konaté. At the same time, the attacking trio of Salah, Gakpo, and Ekitiké will look to exploit Everton's defence.

The midfield combination of Gravenberch, Allister, and Wirtz should provide the necessary balance between defensive solidity and creative playmaking.

Predicted Everton (4-2-3-1)

  • Pickford, O’Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Garner, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Beto

Everton's predicted lineup indicates a reliance on the defensive partnership of Keane and Tarkowski to contain Liverpool's attack. Meanwhile, the midfield duo of Gueye and Iroegbunam will be crucial in breaking up play and initiating counter-attacks.

The presence of Grealish and Dewsbury-Hall in more advanced roles suggests Everton will look to exploit any gaps in Liverpool's defence.
