Here’s the team we think Jurgen Klopp will name to face the Toffees.
Goalkeeper - Alisson Becker


The Brazil No.1 will be aiming for only his second clean sheet so far this season.
Right-back - Trent Alexander-Arnold


Far from at his best in the 2-1 win over Newcastle but he should be bang up for this game.
Centre-back - Joe Gomez


Set for a third successive Premier League start. Gomez played his part in Liverpool's late winner against Newcastle.
Centre-back - Virgil van Dijk

Heads back to the stadium where he suffered a devastating knee injury two years ago. He'll have to be alert to snuff out Everton's potency on the counter-attack.
Left-back - Andy Robertson


Subbed off against Newcastle as he did start to tire. But Robertson remains Liverpool's first-choice left-back and always wears his heart on his sleeve in derby games.
Centre-midfield - Fabinho


He'll be tasked with breaking up any of Everton's swift attacks.
Centre-midfield - James Milner


With options depleted in the middle of the park, Klopp looks highly likely to turn to 36-year-old Milner. His experience is likely to give him the nod over Curtis Jones or Fabio Carvalho.
Centre-midfield - Harvey Elliott

The teenager has started this season in scintillating form and will be savouring his first Merseyside derby having grown up a Kopite.
Right-wing - Mo Salah


Liverpool's talisman has four Merseyside derby goals - having netted twice in the fixture last season.
Striker - Roberto Firmino


Darwin Nunez may be back available for Firmino has scored three goals in the past two games. Perhaps more importantly, he knows Klopp's system markedly better at this moment.
Left-wing - Luis Diaz


It could well have been Goodison Park where Diaz plied his trade week in, week out having been wanted by Everton last summer. Now Toffees supporters will get a glimpse of what could have been - with Diaz making a barnstorming impact since joining Liverpool in January.
