Everton travel to Anfield on Wednesday night in the first Merseyside Derby of the season.

After no win at Anfield in 20 years, form and history are against Marco Silva’s side.

The Toffees are in a poor run of form after winning just three of their previous nine matches and would have preferred to avoid a trip to their neighbours who currently sit eight points clear at the top of the Premier League.



In Wednesday’s game vs the Blues, Liverpool will have to turn to reserve keeper Adrian.

Liverpool’s defensive line is often well-drilled and disciplined meaning Everton will have to utilise pacey forwards who can time their runs perfectly.

Given Adrian’s underwhelming goalkeeping numbers so far, there is plenty to suggest Everton could find a breakthrough in these 1v1 moments.

This was evident in the below example taken from his most recent Premier League start vs Leicester City back in October.
