Everton and Liverpool will face off on Wednesday in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. David Moyes’ team has been on three consecutive league victories since he took charge in mid-January. Can they extend their impressive form against the league leaders? Our Everton vs Liverpool predictions guide previews this contest.
Everton ended a five-game winless run against Liverpool in their last meeting. They last secured back-to-back wins over their rivals in October 1984, during a three-match streak from August 1984 to October 1985.

Everton have won just one of the last five Merseyside derbies, while Liverpool have won thrice with one draw between them.
Everton again finds themselves battling relegation, but David Moyes’ appointment has provided renewed hope. Since their mid-January defeat to Aston Villa, they have strung together three consecutive Premier League wins. This brilliant momentum has eased their survival concerns and created a nine-point cushion above the drop zone.
However, their FA Cup journey ended with a fourth-round loss to Bournemouth last weekend. With Liverpool up next, the Toffees must quickly move past that setback and focus on maintaining their momentum against the league leaders in this high-stakes Merseyside derby.
Due to injuries, Everton will be without Calvert-Lewin, Broja, Chermiti, and McNeil. However, Garner and Iroegbunam have returned, while Alcaraz could make his debut after joining on loan from Flamengo.
Liverpool’s season has been a tale of excellence so far this campaign. They topped their Champions League phase despite a late loss to PSV and secured an EFL Cup final spot with a commanding 4-0 win over Spurs. They’ve suffered just one defeat in the Premier League in 23 games and remain unbeaten in their last 18 league outings. This remains the longest active streak in the division this season.
This decent form has led to bookies offering favorable odds for Liverpool games recently. A derby win would extend Liverpool’s lead over Arsenal to nine points. Notably, they are the only team yet to lose an away match, though they won’t underestimate Everton at Goodison. Their 1:0 loss against Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup fourth round came as a shock to many. However, the Reds have enough firepower to bounce back and will simply look fresher in the upcoming matchups.
Arnold remains sidelined with a hamstring injury from the Bournemouth game. If Bradley cannot play, Gomez or Quansah are potential right-back options.

Liverpool have maintained an unbeaten run in all away league matches this season. Everton, meanwhile, have lost two of their last four at Goodison Park. With Salah leading Liverpool’s attack, Everton’s defense faces a tough challenge. Notably, the Reds have won by two or more goals in four of their last five away EPL matches. Given their attacking firepower and Everton’s inconsistencies at home, we expect an away victory with at least a two-goal margin in this Merseyside derby. The best Premier League odds for this option currently stand at 2.10 (10/9).

Both teams excel in the defensive aspect of their game, a factor that could prove pivotal in this derby. There has been a pattern of clean sheets in seven of the previous eight Everton games. Liverpool have achieved the same outcome in their last three games. Notably, at least one side has shut out the other in five of the last six Merseyside derbies. Given this trend, we anticipate another derby of at least one team maintaining a clean sheet this midweek.

Salah’s future at Anfield remains uncertain, but his impact on Liverpool’s success is undeniable. With 21 goals and a league-high 13 assists, he continues to shine. He’s one of only five players with 20 goals in five Premier League seasons. The Egyptian is poised for a fourth EPL Golden Boot, an achievement only Thierry Henry has matched. We expect Salah to add to his tally against the Toffees on Wednesday.
