  • 93'
    FT: Everton 0-0 Liverpool. Not a classic with Everton having a good spell that they could have scored in. Liverpool will have to wait a little longer to win the league.

a Liverpool
  • 85'
    Origi is booked for a foul on Coleman.
  • 82'
    And Alisson saves from Calvert-Lewin. They should be in front.
  • 80'
    And then from the resutling corner, Calvert-Lewin heads it wide. Great chances for Everton and a let-off for Liverpool
  • 80'
    The rebound then comes to Davies and his deflected shot hits the post.
  • 80'
    What a chance for Everton. First of all, Calvert-Lewin backheels it from the cross which is saved by Alisson.
  • 76'
    If Liverpool don't win this and Man City keep on winning, then they could win the league at the Etihad...
  • 75'
    Looks like it will be 0-0 unless someone produces a moment of magic.
  • 74'
    That's two injuries for Liverpool. Milner and Matip have both had to go off. The break has certainly taken its toll.

  • 63'
    Alexander-Arnold's effort hits the wall and out for a corner.
  • 61'
    Digne is booked for a foul on Mané right at the edge of the box. He won the ball. The Toffees will feel hard done by if this ends in a goal.

    Looks like Sigurdsson will be coming on for Everton.
  • 56'
    I wonder if Mo Salah will get brought on today.

    Liverpool haven't drawn 0-0 since they played Everton in 2019...

    HT: Everton 0-0 Liverpool. Not the best of halves with both teams looking rather rusty. Let's hope for a more lively second-half.

  • 42'
    Liverpool sub: Milner off for Gomez.

Yellow card

a Everton
  • 40'
    Keane is booked for a foul on Mané.
  • 37'
    37 minutes gone and there have been no shots on target. You can tell that there was a three and a half month break...
  • 34'
    A very good chance for the Reds. Firmono has a shot from the edge of the box but he skews his effort wide. You would have expected him to at least hit the target.
  • 32'
    Decent chance for Everton. The free-kick comes in and Richarlison's header is looping but it goes over the bar. He was offside though.
  • 30'
    Another chance for Liverpool. Alexander-Arnold swings in the free-kick but Matip heads quite far wide.
  • 27'
    Still no shots on target yet...
  • 23'
    This match could end 0-0. The last two matches at Goodison between the two have ended in that score. There have been 3 goals in the last 5 matches at Goodison, with three 0-0s.

Yellow card

a Liverpool
  • 20'
    Milner is booked for a foul on Richarlison.
  • 17'
    Still only two chances so far. Both of them have been off-target which does show signs of a certain rustiness.
  • 13'
    A reminder that if Liverpool win their next two matches then they are champions.
  • 10'
    First chance for Liverpool. Minamino has a shot from far out which goes quite far wide.
  • 7'
    Liverpool have started to lose some of that rustiness.
  • 4'
    Almost 1-0 Everton. Richarlison has a shot from a tight angle inside the box that fizzes past the post. Alisson got a touch to it.
  • 2'
    Both teams are looking quite rusty.
  • 1'
    Players take the knee and now we are off.

    Minute silence and there is a rainbow. Very fitting.
  • PRVW
    Players are out.
  • PRVW
    Very odd. Liverpool were getting changed in a portable building outside the stadium and took a different entrance on to the pitch. All necessary so we can all return to normal as soon as possible.
  • PRVW
    Everton are in the tunnel
  • PRVW
    The wait is over.
  • PRVW
    Anyone want to see the Reds warm up?
  • PRVW
    Everton haven't played a competitive match since 8th March, Liverpool's last one came against Atlético on 11th March.
  • PRVW
    Everton haven't beaten Liverpool since 2010. Will they break that streak today?
  • PRVW
    A win for Liverpool will mean that they only have to win on Wednesday to be crowned champions. An Everton win will take them level with Arsenal and keep up their fight for the Europa League places.
  • PRVW
    The big news for Liverpool is that Salah is on the bench, with no Robertson either.
  • PRVW
    Liverpool XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, van Dijk, Milner; Henderson, Fabinho, Keita; Minamino, Firmino, Mane.
  • PRVW
    Everton XI: Pickford; Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Digne; Gordon, Gomes, Davies, Iwobi; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin.
