Liverpool will make the trip to Goodison Park for the final time to face Everton in the 245th Merseyside derby on Saturday.
Arne Slot's men were held to a 3-3 draw at Newcastle United on Wednesday, dropping two points late on following Caoimhin Kelleher's error which allowed Fabian Schar to equalise.
That saw Liverpool's lead at the top of the Premier League cut to seven points, but by playing in the early kickoff they will have the opportunity to extend that before Chelsea and Arsenal play this weekend.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the short trip across Stanley Park to face an Everton side that won 4-0 against Wolverhampton Wanderers in midweek.
