Liverpool take on the visitors Everton at “Anfield” in the fight of the 1/32 stage of the English FA Cup. The match will be played in Liverpool on Friday, January 5th.
At the moment Liverpool stay in the extraordinary form: the team succeeds game by game, but still the club faces difficulties in gaining points at the home pitch within the Premier League. The side has won six out of 11 home battles with not a single defeat earned in them, however, this is not a very good result for “The Merseysiders”, even though they have scored 24 goals with only four goals conceded instead as Liverpool are hardly collecting points in face of their fans. In the latest matches played at “Anfield” the side has beaten Leicester City 2:1, thrashed Swansea 5:0 and got 0:0 draw against West Bromwich.

At the start of the season Everton were in a horrible shape, however, the team started eventually to take on the pace. “The Toffees” suffer on the road, having deserved only eight points in 11 away fights with only one victory gained in them. Both offense and defense demonstrate unconvincing football, having scored only eight goals while conceded 19 ones. In the most recent away clashes Everton have lost 1:2 to Bournemouth, earned 0:0 draw against West Bromwich and broke Newcastle Utd 1:0.
The upcoming game promises to be an interesting one as this is Liverpool derby and thus neither of the clubs is willing to lose. Despite a tough fixture in the Premier League I don’t believe that the rivals will use the reverse squads as it’s derby. However, the hosts are considered to be the favourites of the fight with higher chances for a triumph.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win.
