Liverpool vs Everton Preview - Potential Key Battles
Liverpool travel the vast distance to Goodison Park on Sunday for another hotly anticipated Merseyside Derby. The stakes are showing no signs of letting up for the Reds, but have drawn five of their last six trips to their rivals – with Sadio Mané’s late show the only time the Reds have won there in the league under Klopp. Fresh off the back of Divock Origi’s humiliating last-minute goal, the rivalry renews again. So what will be some of the …

Due to Liverpool's progression in this season's Champions League, today's derby took a little step down in the list of priorities for Klopp and his team.

How do Liverpool compare to previous 2nd place finishes?
Liverpool’s form has picked up, the team seem to be gelling, and there’s a lot of belief among the Anfield faithful that something very special could be upon us and our beloved Reds.
This I expect.
What I didn’t expect, however, was for neutrals and bookies to be quite so on board as well. Last I checked, we ranked at 5/1 for the title, second only to Manchester City and at around half the odds of Arsenal and Man Utd. …

Liverpool - A Home Away from Home

Suddenly all eyes …

The Case for the Liverpool Defence Part 2: ‘Midfield and Beyond’
In Part I, I looked at the individual members of the back ‘5’ (including the GK), and the most likely rotational or still to return individuals, each with their own pluses and minuses. In Part II, I want to look at the midfield options and striker responsibilities relative to defence, the overall strategy and tactics employed (the two are not the same) and how the gears of overall defence do – and often don’t – mesh.
Liverpool essentially have six …
