Liverpool host Everton at the Anfield on Sunday night as both sides look to get the better of each other in this Premier League match. The Reds managed to secure a 4-0 win over Manchester United in their last league game, so they will be full of confidence ahead of this match. In contrast, the Toffees could achieve a 1-1 draw against Leicester City in midweek, which has halted their momentum ahead of this weekend’s game.
Liverpool Vs Everton: Talking Tactics
Jurgen Klopp will set his team up in a 4-3-3 formation and ask his players to dominate the ball and engineer enough clear-cut chances to win this league clash at Anfield.
Frank Lampard will probably opt for a 4-4-2 formation and could instruct his men to defend their penalty box well and try to capitalize if the Liverpool defenders are caught off-guard on the counter.

The Reds will rely on the creativity of Mane, Firmino and Salah as they look to collectively produce a winning performance over the weekend.
Thiago will be tasked with creating chances for the attacking trio, whereas Alisson will be expected to make some solid stops at the back.
