Struggling Liverpool face bitter rivals Everton in a huge Merseyside derby at Anfield on Monday evening and all the action is live on talkSPORT.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are sat in tenth in the Premier League and are winless in four as their car crash campaign continues. 

After an embarrassing defeat to Wolves last time out, the Reds are 11 points off the top four and Everton will be hoping to continue their misery. 

And they head into the clash following a superb result in Sean Dyche’s first game in charge of the Toffees.

James Tarkowski’s goal was enough to secure an impressive 1-0 win against league leaders Arsenal which moved them closer to safety. 

Dyche will now manage his first derby and the stakes couldn’t be higher with three points not only benefiting themselves but also extending their rivals’ barren run.

Liverpool vs Everton: What has been said?

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp speaking at his pre-match press conference: “After the game we played against Wolves, we have to show a reaction again.

“I know our people want to see that – we have to show that. This is not a time we wanted to have or a time we are happy to be in but I think it is a time where we can show, if we want to, that the club is really special.

“The boys delivered a lot of great moments in the last few years but in this moment we are fighting to change the situation in a better direction.

“I believe the better you behave in the lower moments the quicker you get in the better moments again and the more success we have because we are still together.”
