βɑɤcʟɑʏs Pɤеɱɪеɤ Leɑɡue..... Matchweek 23 Preview..... Liverpool v Everton... @Λɴʄɪelð....... Liverpool will be looking to continue their impressive home record, which has seen them win 9 of their 11 Premier League games at Anfield this season and take 28 points from a possible 33. The Reds have also scored an impressive 29 goals in these 11 home games, with only free scoring Manchester City (42) scoring more home goals this season. Everton, however, have only suffered two Premier League defeats under new manager Roberto Martinez, with their only away defeat coming at The Etihad in October. The Toffees also boast the joint best defensive record away from home in the Premier League this season, conceding just 11 goals in their 11 away games. Liverpool have had the better of the recent encounters between these teams and are unbeaten in their last 7 games against their rivals in all competitions, with Everton’s last win coming in October 2010. However, with Lukaku’s decent form against the Reds and Liverpool’s lack of defensive options there will be no better time for the Toffees to end this run. Team Newz....... Liverpool will be without defenders Glen Johnson, Daniel Agger and Jose Enrique, while Mamadou Sakho faces a late fitness test. Joe Allen will also miss out, while Lucas has been ruled out for two months with a knee ligament injury. Jon Flanagan is fit to play after returning in the FA Cup tie with Bournemouth. Darron Gibson and Arouna Kone are both long term absentees for Everton, while Ross Barkley, Steven Pienaar, Gerard Deulofeu and Seamus Coleman have all been ruled out. Bryan Oviedo will definitely miss the game after suffering a double leg break against Stevenage in the FA Cup on Saturday. Match Factz ....
