SSN BET - Match of the Day: Liverpool - Everton / 02.12.2018

Hello my dear friends! In England today is derby day. Sunday's gaming day will open the Chelsea - Fulham London derby, then English football fans will enjoy another derby Arsenal - Tottenham. Well, for me as a fan of English football and the Liverpool football club today, only one match Liverpool - Everton is important, which will be held at the Enfield Road stadium. So, let's look at the form in which the teams fit this match.

LIVERPOOL

Liverpool is coming to a bout with Everton after an insulting failure in the Champions League. The defeat of the "red" on the road from PSG could have been predicted, but this fiasco was for the team of Jürgen Klopp the third away defeat in the Champions League this season. And now Liverpool must try hard to get to the playoffs. However, the results in the Premier League of Liverpool's failures in Europe have not yet had a strong influence. "Red" in the Premier League go in second place, breaking away from the third Tottenham at three points. In the last five matches, the guys Jurgen Klopp defeated Huddersfield (1-0) and Fulham (2-0), defeated Watford (3-0) and Cardiff City (4-1), and also tied away with Arsenal (1-1 ). Of the key players in Liverpool in the upcoming match will not be able to play an unqualified Jordan Henderson. Participation of Divok Origi, Dominic Solanke and Adam Lallana is questionable, but their absence will not have a serious impact on the game of the main team.

EVERTON

Everton improved his results only recently. Started the "toffee" season mediocre, often tied where it was possible to win. But the current sixth place team Marco Silva is a clear confirmation of the fact that Everton noticeably added. In the last seven fights, “toffee” won five victories, beating Leicester City (2-1), Fulham (3-0), Crystal Palace (2-0), Brighton (3-1) and Cardiff City (1-0). Lost points "toffee" only in matches with Chelsea (0-0) and Manchester United (1-2). Injured in "Everton" now generally do not. Questionable only the participation of defender Jonjo Kenny.

STATISTICS AND PERSONAL MEETINGS

• Liverpool's win-win series in the Premier League reached 14 matches.
• At the "Enfield" in the Premier League "Reds" have not lost 27 fights in a row.
• For 11 previous meetings in the Premier League in the home arena, Liverpool missed only one goal.
• Everton lost only one of the last seven matches in the championship.
• At the exit from Everton, only one victory in the seven past battles in the Premier League, and in six of these meetings, "toffee" missed.
• Everton cannot win Liverpool in a full-time duel for 17 matches in a row. True, just nine fights from this series ended in a draw.

Despite the status of the derby and the greatly improved results of Everton, the “red” is still considered an obvious favorite. Jurgen Klopp's team against the "toffee" will be at home, and Liverpool, in full-time meetings, especially with the current head coach, usually beats Everton (four wins in six previous matches). However, it is not so simple. Firstly, the “Reds” are now playing much more cautiously than last season, secondly - they will play after a tough match with PSG, and thirdly, Everton is not involved in eurocups and will enter the match with extreme motivation. So let's summarize.

Liverpool cannot lose in his native walls, especially after the failure in the Champions League. At Anfield, Everton did not win for 17 matches, and this is probably annoying for them. Liverpool, though playing cautiously, with the middlers (and Everton, with all due respect to them, is not yet a Top Club), learned to understand this season. With all this, it is difficult to imagine that the "toffee" will leave the field without a goal scored.
