Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is hoping to continue his excellent derby record.
The Reds have only lost ONE Merseyside derby since Klopp has been at the club.
Given the two teams' relative league positions, they will again be favourites when they take on Everton on Saturday.
Asked about that record, Klopp told reporters: One too much! Yeah, but they were all different, all difficult for different reasons. And I don't think it makes too much sense to compare now other derbies with this derby because it's a different team, different manager.
Let's have a look at the facts and the facts are that Everton is in a good moment. It was a difficult finish of the season but successful because they stayed in; and then the start was not that easy but since three or four weeks they get the results.
Before that they had already performances shots on goal, stuff like this, not always an awful lot of possession but knowing how to find the goal and the direction. That's good and you can see it.
It's clear Burnley in the best moments were a super-difficult team to play and you can see that again, similar things. Different players, similar things. And it's good, it's difficult to defend.
You have to be ready for second-ball fights, we have to be ready for runs in behind, we have to be ready for a compact defense, all these kinds of things. It will be a tough one, derbies always were tough, Premier League games always are tough.
We just have to make sure we are in this football understanding and that we are patient enough, all of us people as well we have to make sure we just put a proper shift in, take the fight and go for it."
