Liverpool vs Everton: How to live stream, time, venue, where to watch, who will win and all the pre-buzz around the Merseyside derby
It has been a start Everton would have dreamed about well before the season. Perched pretty right on top of the points table, they welcome a shaky Liverpool at Goodison Park on Saturday, October 17. The Reds are coming off the back of a 2-7 mauling at the hands of Aston Villa, but safe to say, a week's break would have rejuvenated Liverpool and the defending champs will be keen to shake off the defeat. Both teams have made impressive signings in the transfer window and will look forward to what their buys have to offer.

Pre-buzz around the game
Everton is yet to lose a game and stay comfortably on top of the table with 12 points, while the Reds, bolstered by their recent acquisitions in the transfer window will be keen to get back to winning ways. Naby Keita, Alisson, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are on Jurgen Klopp's injury list, while Allan Marques Loureiro, Jonjoe Kenny, Jarrad Branthwaite, Mason Holgate, and Jean-Philippe Gbamin are on Everton's IR. Liverpool's breachable defense has been the topic of discussion throughout the series and Klopp will be counting on a much-improved performance from his side.
Who will win?
The recent head-to-heads were pretty much low scoring affairs, with their last encounter ending with a draw. However, in the form Everton is in, they will be fancying their chances to take on a wobbly Liverpool.
