They're 10th. Hardly world beaters. But the whole club seem to fold when we go near them. Embarrassing every year.

It’s only our win record that is bad. Most derby games end as a draw. Given how poor we’ve been and how good they’ve been recently we’ve probably taken more points off them than a lot of bottom half teams have. Palace for example since Crystanbul lost every single league game to them until this season home and away. Spurs record at Anfield is terrible, so is Arsenal’s.

It’s a strange one because all both teams really seem to care about is not losing face so we get into these silly positions where it’s 0-0 and neither team really wants to risk going for it. This could easily go the same way, we’re both desperate for the three points but if it’s tied late on then Liverpool will just be making sure they don’t lose and we’ll probably be thinking that a draw keeps the momentum going.
 
Klopp even said it after one of the recent derbies before Carlo finally shut him up. Something like ‘at least they’ve still not beaten us’. We cost them key points in title challenges that went down to the wire and all he could come out with after the game is that at least Everton didn’t break their not winning streak.

All they’re doing is hoping they don’t suffer the ignominy of losing to Everton in front of their own fans. If we actually got in front during the game that lot would crumble and their fans would turn on them. It’s the ultimate embarrassment for them.

1st 15 each half is critical. We just need to grow a really big pair even long range shots on target will shut them up. Once that happens viking instinct kicks in then they turn on themselves. But yeah 0 - 0 is the likely outcome ?
 
I`ll be happy with a draw from this one, then get focused on the next three games which are really important for us. That said, with them being in such poor form it would be great to pile a bit more pressure on Herr Klopp and co.

One win there in lockdown since 1999. Its a woeful record that's included many hammerings.
