Everton Midfielder Relishing Merseyside Derby Clash With Liverpool
Everton midfielder Tom Davies is eagerly anticipating the Merseyside Derby clash with Liverpool as he hopes to put a dent in the Reds’ title challenge.
In his pre-match thoughts via Goal, Tom Davies revealed that the target is to stop their rivals who are on course for a first Premier League title.
He also pointed out that Everton are looking for consistency after failing to win successive league games since October.
Tom Davies warmed up for the 200th Merseyside Derby with a comprehensive 3-0 victory at struggling Cardiff City and the Toffees would be hoping to make it two wins in a row for the first time in five months when they face Liverpool.
The Reds started the weekend at the top of the Premier League table but they have been replaced by defending champions Manchester City.
The holders defeated Bournemouth 1-0 away from home to snatch top spot from Liverpool.
The Reds can only go back to the Premier League summit with a win over their Merseyside rivals.
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 18 games against the Toffees.
Everton’s last win over Liverpool came in the Premier League in 2009 when they thrashed them 3-0 in front of their home fans.
