Team news and rosters
Position | Everton roster |
---|---|
Goalkeepers | Pickford, Begovic, Lonergan |
Defenders | Tarkowski, Patterson, Holgate, Keane, Mina, Mykolenko, Godfrey, Coleman, Vinagre, Coady |
Midfielders | Allan, Onana, Doucoure, Davies, Gueye, Garner |
Forwards | McNeil, Calvert-Lewin, Gordon, Gray, Townsend, Iwobi, Maupay, Rondon |
Two new midfielders in the shape of Idrissa Gueye - back after a spell with PSG - and James Garner has seen Frank Lampard bolster the engine room of his squad, but has the former Chelsea boss made enough changes to see his side safely through another risky campaign?
They will be delighted to have fended off interest for Anthony Gordon, with the youngster's goal ensuring a point against Leeds last time out - but Liverpool will present an entirely different kettle of fish.
Predicted Everton starting XI: Pickford; Patterson, Coady, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; McNeil, Davies, Onana, Iwobi, Gordon; Maupay.
Position | Liverpool roster |
---|---|
Goalkeepers | Alisson, Adrián, Kelleher |
Defenders | Gomez, Van Dijk, Konaté, Matip, Tsimikas, Ramsay, Robertson, Phillips, Alexander-Arnold |
Midfielders | Fabinho, Thiago, Milner, Keita, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Elliott, Arthur |
Forwards | Firmino, Salah, Jota, Díaz, Núñez, Carvalho |
Despite claims their transfer business was done for the summer, a final day raid for Juventus man Arthur has seen Jurgen Klopp strengthen his midfield - but whether he will blood his new recruit so soon is up for debate.
What is hard to ignore is, that between their Community Shield win and a 9-0 drubbing of Bournemouth, Liverpool have been far from their best - and the German will hope there is no need for late heroics as there was against Newcastle to seal victory this time around.
Predicted Liverpool starting XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Elliott, Fabinho, Carvalho; Salah, Firmino, Diaz
