Liverpool lock horns with cross town rivals Everton on Tuesday night at Anfield, on what is expected to be a thrilling encounter. The Reds from Merseyside are currently fourth on the table, just a point ahead of their Blues counterpart who sit sixth. Both the teams come into the pulsating encounter at the back of their respective FA Cup win, Liverpool beating Bournemouth by a 2-0 margin, while Everton overwhelming Stevenage by four goals.
Brendan Rodgers’ side will be looking to keep up their impressive home record of winning nine of their previous eleven games at Anfield but they clash against the team which boasts of conceding the fewest goals away from this campaign. Roberto Martinez’s side have only conceded 11 goals in their same number of travels away from home and have lost only once, against Manchester City at the Etihad in October. Liverpool have steamrolled past their opponents in recent games but against Everton they need to be at their very best to avoid dropping points. So can the Reds beat the Blues to hold firm onto their Champions League aspirations? We here at Soccersouls provide you Brendan Rodgers’ best possible starting line up.
Goalkeeping:
Simon Mignolet will man the Liverpool goal on Tuesday and going by recent form, the Belgian has looked quite nervous which doesn’t augur well for the home side. Everton’s build up play this season has simply been impeccable, irresistible at times and Mignolet will also have to deal with the shots from distance the Toffees will have on offer.
