"Liverpool take on Everton in the Merseyside Derby tomorrow, and they will look to continue their winning start to the campaign. They have picked up four wins in a row in the Premier League, and they will look to pick up their fifth win tomorrow. They will be full of confidence and momentum after the impressive win over Atletico Madrid during the midweek."
"It was his first match of the campaign after missing the whole of pre-season. He will need time to get back to his peak fitness, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool are willing to risk him in the Derby game. Arne Slot said: Alex felt his body more than ever before after the 60mins he played. Let's see how he's recovered. We will think about the line up later today."
Liverpool enter the Merseyside Derby against Everton seeking a fifth straight Premier League win after four consecutive victories and a midweek win over Atletico Madrid. Confidence and momentum are high, but Everton are also in strong form and cannot be underestimated. Manager Arne Slot faces selection decisions with club-record signing Alexander Isak uncertain after fatigue following his 60 minutes against Atletico. Isak missed pre-season and needs time to regain peak fitness, so Liverpool must weigh the risk of starting him in a high-intensity derby. Availability of Isak could influence Liverpool's creativity and finishing in the final third.
