The standout fixture of Premier League Gameweek 30 takes place at Anfield on Wednesday, with Liverpool and Everton meeting in the 246th Merseyside Derby (8pm).
Arne Slot’s men know a win will be a big step to sealing the title, but Everton would love nothing better than damaging their near rivals’ hopes of finishing top of the pile.
A game that is normally hotly contested in front of a crackling atmosphere could well boil over, just weeks after a dramatic clash between the sides at Goodison Park.

Reds determined to seal the deal
The international break may have come at the right time for Liverpool, who crashed out of the Champions League and lost the EFL Cup final in the same week.
Slot’s squad still have a 12-point lead at the top, with nine games remaining, but it could have been 14 if they had beaten their city rivals back in February.
The Reds held a 2-1 lead going into stoppage time in the final Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, but a stoppage-time equaliser from James Tarkowski snatched the Toffees a share of the spoils.
Liverpool have won the last three Anfield encounters against their neighbours and that drama across at Stanley Park is likely to fire them up even more for Wednesday’s clash.
David Moyes will hope his men can take advantage of a Liverpool backline that have kept just one clean sheet in their last seven Premier League home matches.
That Reds defence will once again be without Trent Alexander-Arnold, as he continues his recovery from an ankle injury suffered in the European defeat to PSG.
Mac Allister tasked with running midfield
There were no fewer than eight yellows and two red cards dished out in the Goodison clash seven weeks ago, with Abdoulaye Doucoure and Curtis Jones both dismissed after the full-time whistle.
Liverpool’s Alexis Mac Allister escaped a caution on that occasion, but the World Cup winner has collected six yellows in the league this term.
The Argentina international, who scored in the Goodison Park draw, looks a candidate to be booked in what could be a feisty affair.
Sam Barrott, one of the youngest officials on the Premier League rota, will be in charge of arguably the biggest game of his career to date.
Salah can shine again
After being kept quiet against both PSG and Newcastle, Mohamed Salah will be determined to bounce back with a goal in this huge game.
The Egyptian forward scored for his country in last week’s World Cup qualifier against Ethiopia and is now looking to increase his advantage at the top of the Premier League goalscoring charts.
Salah, who has 27 league goals for the season, has scored seven times against Everton since joining the Reds in the summer of 2017.
