Liverpool v Everton
Premier League, Sunday, December 2, KO 4.15pm. Live on Sky Sports
Liverpool haven't lost to Everton in 17 meetings – their longest unbeaten run in the Merseyside derby.
It's a sour stat for the Toffees but I don't see it getting any sweeter for them on Sunday.
Jurgen Klopp's men were disappointing as they lost to PSG in midweek but that's a different level of opposition and while Everton have £100million of talent in Gylfi Sigurdson and Richarlison they don't score enough.
That accusation can't be levelled at Liverpool's terrific trio of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino even though they haven't been as prolific as last season.
Everton's form has picked up with five wins in seven but they haven't triumphed at Anfield since 1999 and their hosts remain unbeaten in the Premier League this season and have kept 10 clean sheets in their last 11 at Anfield.
That's why Liverpool are just 2-5 to win with Everton 7-1 and the draw 9-5.

Salah is worth a look at 18-5 to score first or if you want an outsider how about penalty taker James Milner at 23-2 with 888sport. Or even consider Virgil van Dijk at 7-1 as he's always looking to profit from deadball situations.
Liverpool's defensive record and the form of the likes of van Dijk doesn't suggest a lot of goals but on the h2h four of the last five have seen both score and four of the previous six have gone over 2.5 goals.
Consider both to score at a decent price of 17-20 with 888sport.
Recommended Bets
- Salah to score first (18-5, 888sport)
