Description
80'
Some untidy Liverpool play hands Everton a throw-in deep in their own half. The away side need to create another chance fast before two points slip away from them.
79'
Fabinho gets yellow.
Fabinho is next to see a yellow card as Gomes' first act in the game is to be fouled by Liverpool's metronome.
78'

77'
Everton make their final change. Schneiderlin off. Gomes on.
76'

Sigurdsson's free-kick somehow lands to Tosun in space at the near post but the Turkish striker isn't ready for it and his shot doesn't test Alisson.
75'

Gueye finds Richarlison wide right - the Brazilian cleverly waits for Robertson to come clattering in and the Scot is booked.
74'

Everton make another change. Calvert-Lewin, who's been quieter this half, is replaced up front by Tosun.
72'
Now it's Everton's turn to have an attack as Richarlison's shot takes a deflection off Milner. This game is getting nervier and more frantic by the second.
71'
Salah should have done much better there. Liverpool's front three race forward and Milner is all alone to Pickford's right - the Egyptian looks to find him but his cross is caught by Pickford far too easily.
70'
The signs are starting to look ominous for Everton as Liverpool ramp up the pressure. Zouma and Henderson clash heads as they challenge for a header - they're both fine, and no foul.
68'
Liverpool counter-attack again, looking more like their usual selves. Mane's pass for Salah is slightly overcooked but it's worked back to Milner whose shot from distance is deflected. Liverpool get the corner.
67'
Coleman elects to cross early instead of driving directly at Van Dijk - it's blocked. Schneiderlin picks up the ball from Everton's throw and fires a wicked cross across goal - no one's there. Digne whips the ball back in for Richarlison whose header towards Alisson is tame.
63'
J. Milner enters the game and replaces G. Wijnaldum.
Roberto Firmino enters the game and replaces D. Origi.
Klopp decides to make two changes for Liverpool. First, Wijnaldum goes off for Milner.

62'
Digne looks for the near post from another Everton corner. This time it's a goal-kick to Liverpool.
61'
Firmino is preparing to come on for Liverpool. Van Dijk comes across to check Coleman who is on another of his marauding runs forward.
60'

59'
Richarlison enters the game and replaces T. Walcott.
Everton keep up the pressure down their left side and make incremental progress towards the corner flag. Meanwhile, they will make their first substitution of the game.

The game is starting to open up now - a situation which looks more favourable to Liverpool than Everton. Still, Everton win a throw down their left after Matip intercepts a ball down the line.
56'
Wijnaldum finds Origi on the left for Liverpool. Origi makes use of Robertson's run to cut inside but drags his shot wide. Liverpool are mostly in control but look in need of a little sprucing up.

48'

Origi nutmegs Coleman who recovers well. Keane boots the ball forward but Calvert-Lewin and Sigurdsson are nowhere to be seen.
45' +1
HALF TIME: EVERTON 0-0 LIVERPOOL
Fabinho attempts to find Alexander-Arnold powering down the right flank but the Brazilian's pass is too powerful for the full-bac to reach. That will be that for now.
45'
Everton can't build anything at the moment - they keep getting the ball then giving it away or handing Liverpool easy fouls. There will be one added minute in this first half.
44'
Robertson curls the free-kick towards Van Dijk who's rushing in towards Pickford's left-hand post. Unfortunately for Liverpool there's too much pace on the ball and the Dutchman can only head it out of play.

40'
Wijnaldum nabs a loose ball before Schneiderlin can get there and Liverpool can now attack. Alexander-Arnold's high cross into the box is claimed by Pickford. No worries there.
39'
Keane launches a mortar pass forward towards Walcott who's surprisingly being played onside by Matip. Walcott has a pop but it's way high and wide of Alisson's goal. At least Everton have had an attempt now.
35'

32'
Walcott wins a free-kick deep in Everton's half after he's fouled by Origi. Everton's players ask the referee why Origi hasn't been booked - it's a similar challenge to Walcott's earlier.
31'
Walcott is almost in behind Liverpool's defence from Keane's direct pass but he's just mistimed his run and is flagged offside.
30'
Play stops briefly as the referee needs replacement batteries in his earpiece. Just prior to that, Mane was offside from Fabinho's through-ball.
27'
Coleman finds Walcott with a ball over the top down Everton's right. The Everton fans complain after Origi is deemed to win a throw off the Englishman.
26'
Salah shrugs off Digne despite having his shirt tugged by the Frenchman. Liverpool only get a throw down the right for his efforts.
25'
Everton are enjoying a spell on the ball. Van Dijk cleans up after Gueye looks down the line for Calvert-Lewin. Great defending by the Dutchman.
24'

20'

14'
Everton and Liverpool both initiate attacks only for them to break down. Henderson looks up and aims a pinpoint direct pass for Salah breaking through the back-line. Everton put it out for a throw-in. From the throw, Salah cuts inside on his left foot in the box but his shot is at a comfortable height for Pickford.
11'
Everton's corner comes to nothing. Now Liverpool win a corner as they go straight up the other end. Alexander-Arnold takes it but it doesn't beat the first man.
9'

5'
Digne makes amends by letting a Henderson pass intended for Salah roll out for a goal-kick. This game has started at a terrifying pace.
4'
Salah intercepts a sloppy pass out by Digne and Liverpool venture forward. Keane blocks Origi's cross and Liverpool win a throw down their left.
2'
Both sides start aggressively with the wet pitch not helping proceedings. Liverpool win a free-kick near the half-way line after Keane unfairly blocks Mane. Van Dijk tries to find Salah from the free-kick but the Egyptian is offside. Ferocious start here at Goodison Park.

The 200th Merseyside derby in English league history gets underway!
Hello and welcome to our live text commentary of this Premier League Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park.
This game would be huge even if the Premier League title race wasn't involved. After Man City overcame a well-drilled Bournemouth side 1-0 earlier this weekend, the pressure is back on Liverpool to secure a victory and return to the top of the table. Drop points today and the initiative will be back with Pep Guardiola's side - an outcome that Jurgen Klopp's Reds can't afford to let happen.
Everton will be even more up for this derby than usual. The Toffees were mightily unlucky to lose to Liverpool last December after Divock Origi's 96th minute header at Anfield gave Liverpool a crucial 1-0 win. What better way for Marco Silva's team to take revenge than to give their rivals' title hopes a serious blow at Goodison Park today?
EVERTON (4-2-3-1): Jordan Pickford; Seamus Coleman (c), Kurt Zouma, Michael Keane, Lucas Digne; Morgan Schneiderlin, Idrissa Gueye; Theo Walcott, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Bernard; Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
EVERTON SUBS: Maarten Stekelenburg, Richarlison, Phil Jagielka, Jonjoe Kenny, Cenk Tosun, Tom Davies, Andre Gomes.
LIVERPOOL (4-3-3): Alisson; Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip, Andrew Robertson; Jordan Henderson (c), Fabinho, Georginio Wijnaldum; Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Divock Origi.
LIVERPOOL SUBS: Simon Mignolet, James Milner, Naby Keita,Adam Lallana, Xherdan Shaqiri, Roberto Firmino, Daniel Sturridge.
It's been a rainy day in Merseyside and both sides are on the pitch now - Liverpool in their iconic red, Everton in their historic blue and white. It's on!
That result means that Liverpool stay second with nine games of the Premier League season left to play. Their title challenge is still alive but they need help from elsewhere now. Everton stay 10th - they'll be very happy with their point and recent upturn in form.
Liverpool's attention must now turn to Burnley at Anfield next week - not the easiest task given their recent revival. Everton will travel to Newcastle and hope they can climb up the table further. Will this be a crucial day in this season's title race? We'll see. That's all for now. Goodbye!
