Preview: Everton vs. Liverpool - Team news and prediction.

Merseyside derby as Everton and Liverpool meet.

Everton recently secured a victory over Nottingham Forest and managed to create some breathing space above the relegation zone. Liverpool, on the other hand, turned around their poor form against Fulham and are still in the title race, so there's a lot at stake in tonight's match at opposite ends of the league.

The Merseyside derby is among the most fiercely contested matches in Europe, and we expect an intense game with many fouls and consequently, many yellow cards. Unibet offers odds of 1.93 for over 5.5 yellow cards in the match.

Liverpool has conceded many goals this season, and in the last six Premier League matches, the opponents have scored against them. If you believe both teams will score in the match, Bet365 currently offers odds of 1.70.

Team news: 
Everton will be without Lewis Dobbin, Dele Alli, Nathan Patterson, and Beto due to injuries for the match. Beto should be okay after a nasty incident in the last game, but it looks like he has played his last match of the season.

Liverpool will be without Thiago, Bajcetic, Matip, Diogo Jota and Conor Bradley for the match.

Everton predicted lineup:
Pickford; Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Onana, Gueye, McNeil; Doucoure; Calvert-Lewin. 

Liverpool predicted lineup: 
Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Endo, Mac Allister; Salah, Gakpo, Diaz. 

Prediction: 
We believe it will be a close match, but Liverpool needs to win to stay in the title race, and their recent victory against Fulham has boosted their confidence. Therefore, we suggest a Liverpool win + both teams to score, with odds of 2.87 at Betway.
