The next Merseyside derby will begin on Saturday when Liverpool travels to Goodison Park to face Everton. The Reds just defeated Newcastle 2-1 after finding their rhythm over a previous couple of games. The most recent of the Toffees' three league games, against Leeds, finished in a 1-1 tie. They have yet to pick up their first victory of the year.

Pick on the Moneyline: Liverpool -255

Liverpool had lost all three of their games to start the season, but they had a stunning turnaround on Matchday 4 when they tied Bournemouth for the largest EPL win with a resounding 9-0 triumph. Harvey Elliott, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Fabio Carvalho each contributed a goal, and Luis Diaz and Roberto Firmino both scored a hat trick. Early in the second half, Bournemouth defender Chris Mepham was also given credit for an own goal.

Everton has failed to record a victory this season, losing their first two games and drawing their last three. When Liverpool travels almost one mile from Anfield to Goodison Park, they'll be hoping to at least get a point, but if the Reds have anything to say about it, they'll be departing their rivals' stadium with all three points.

The Toffees just avoided relegation last season, and if the first five games are any indicator of how Frank Lampard's team will do through all 38 games, they appear to be in danger once again this year. With only three points, they are currently in 17th place, whereas Liverpool has moved up to a fifth place with eight points. Support the Reds.
