Paul Merson's predictions
Everton v Liverpool

I just don't see it being an important game for Liverpool, I really don't. I just can't see them playing their full team. They're already in the Champions League next season in my opinion, they're 10 points clear of Chelsea going into the weekend.

It's one of them where they've got an important game coming up. They worked hard the other day so if Jurgen Klopp goes and plays a full team I would be shocked.

PAUL PREDICTS: 1-0

The last time the Toffees won against Liverpool was in October 2010

There have been 21 red cards in this fixture, with 14 shown to Everton players.

Can love conquer all in a Merseyside derby date?

BBC Sport sends Everton fan Richie and Liverpool fan Roopa on a date to see if love can conquer all - even football rivalries.
 
With Salah seemingly out I think it could be our right side that could prove to be the key area.

If he rests Robertson for Moreno, I’d expect us to be pinging the ball to Walcott and Seamus to get at a player who I simply don’t rate as a defender.

Thats being kind and insinuates that you rate him as a player of a different position. Personally the kid is fu<king useless and would be more suited to athletics

Tbf mate he looks alright going forwards, but his defensive positional play is largely brainless
 
Liverpool are hopeful that Mohamed Salah will be fit for the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final with Manchester City - but Emre Can is likely to miss out, writes @JamesPearceEcho
 
Can we get Gerrard to play?

Midfield will be Henderson and 2 others, but none of Milner, Wijnaldum or Chamberlain.

Everton v Liverpool (12:30 BST)

I think this game will tell Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp a lot about his players - for starters in terms of how they react to such a quick turnaround after playing on Wednesday night.

It is a big ask and it will stretch the squad, but I can't see Klopp taking any risks with Mohamed Salah, no matter how he says he is feeling after coming off with an injury against City.


Liverpool 3-0 Man City: Klopp and Guardiola reaction
Jordan Henderson will play because he is suspended for Wednesday's return leg at Etihad Stadium (19:45 BST kick-off) but elsewhere in midfield Klopp might think he has to save the legs of James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Georginio Wijnaldum and, if he is fit, Emre Can will probably start.

But Klopp can't make too many changes. Although their top-four place looks a lot more secure after Chelsea lost to Spurs last weekend, they have to keep pushing on.

For Everton, it is probably the perfect game to respond after being taken apart by City.

Some of the City players found Anfield hostile on Wednesday, but the atmosphere will be the same for Liverpool players at Goodison Park.

Probably one of the most important people in deciding the outcome will be the referee, because I think tackles will be flying in.
