Why you should back Liverpool

Only one of the Reds' seven losses have come at Anfield, and they have a 23-9 goal differential on home soil. They still have dangerous attackers, with Mohamed Salah leading the charge. The Egyptian striker has seven goals, which is not up to his standard, but he is still a dangerous presence. Salah shared the Golden Boot last season with 23 goals. Darwin Nunez, who has 10 goals in all competitions, and Cody Gakpo also can create a lot of problems for defenders. Gakpo had 12 goals in 19 matches with PSV Eindhoven before arriving after the World Cup.

Liverpool have had a ton of injuries, but they face an Everton squad that has scored just 16 goals. If their talented attack can find at least one goal, they'll be in good shape. The Toffees are 1-4-5 on the road and have scored just six away goals. The Reds are 12-9-1 in their past 22 home meetings with Everton. The last meeting ended 0-0, but Liverpool had an 8-3 advantage in shots on target and held 61% possession. 

Why you should back Everton

The Toffees should have an abundance of confidence after their famous victory against Arsenal. The team looked rejuvenated under Dyche, and it was a deserved result. Everton were organized in the back, with James Tarkowski and Conor Coady locking down the middle. Abdoulaye Doucoure, Idrissa Gueye and Andre Onana will play a physical game in the midfield that should frustrate the Reds. Everton are third in tackles won (232) and sixth in yellow cards (46). Onana has won 33 tackles (sixth in EPL), and Tarkowski leads the EPL in blocks (57).

Veteran goalkeeper Jordan Pickford backs up the stout defense, and he is third in the league in saves (75). Everton held Arsenal without a goal for just the second time in league play. The Toffees can be effective on the counter-attack. Dominic Calvert-Lewin (one goal) is back from injury, and Demarai Gray (three goals) can outrun defenders. Liverpool have allowed at least two goals in five of their past seven games in all competitions.
