Everton will face Liverpool in the Merseyside derby without Beto and Seamus Coleman who are sidelined due to injury. However, manager Sean Dyche is hopeful that Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be fit to play. Beto suffered a head injury in their recent match against Nottingham Forest while Coleman is recovering from a groin issue.

Calvert-Lewin dealing with a knee injury is expected to return. If he is unavailable, 19 years old Youssef Chermiti may step in. On the Liverpool side, Diogo Jota will miss the match due to a hip issue which Jurgen Klopp described as minor but enough to keep him out for a couple of weeks.
