Mansion Sports – As the 247th Merseyside Derby draws near, Anfield once again prepares to bear witness to the classic rivalry between Liverpool, the reigning Premier League champions, and their ever-determined city rivals, Everton. The match is scheduled for Saturday, September 20, 2025, at 12:30 local time.

This derby has always been more than just a football match—it is a contest steeped in history, pride, and fiery atmosphere inside the stands. 

Their last encounter in April 2025 ended with Liverpool securing a narrow 1-0 victory through a late goal from Diogo Jota, underlining once again how closely contested and dramatic this rivalry tends to be until the very last whistle.

For fans who do not want to miss out on the spectacle, Mansion Sports has compiled a guide on where to watch Liverpool vs Everton 2025. 

But before that, let’s take a closer look at both teams’ preparations ahead of this much-anticipated clash.

Liverpool: Consistency in Late Victories

This season, Liverpool have developed a pattern of clinching wins in the dying moments of matches. 

A prime example came in their dramatic 3-2 Champions League triumph over Atletico Madrid, which marked their fifth victory of the season secured after the 83rd minute.

In that fixture, The Reds initially led through goals by Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah, only for Marcos Llorente to strike twice and level the score. 

However, captain Virgil van Dijk rose above the defense to head home a decisive goal in the 92nd minute—on the 47th birthday of manager Arne Slot.

Statistics reflect this trend: 29% of Liverpool’s Premier League goals this season have been scored in the 90th minute or later, including Mohamed Salah’s penalty deep into stoppage time that sealed a 1-0 win against Burnley. 

Slot praised his players’ unwavering focus until the final whistle, though he admitted that matches should be settled more comfortably.

The fans will be eager to see whether Liverpool can once again deliver high drama against Everton while continuing their perfect start to the league season. 

With 12 points from their opening four matches, the Reds sit at the top of the table and are determined to win their opening five fixtures—a feat achieved only twice before in the club’s history.

Their record at Anfield provides additional confidence: Liverpool have lost just once in their last 28 meetings against Everton across all competitions, claiming four consecutive victories since a 0-2 defeat in February 2021.

In terms of squad news, Liverpool are without midfielder Curtis Jones due to injury, with his return expected later this month. 

Slot expressed surprise at Alexander Isak’s impressive fitness, as the forward lasted 58 minutes in his full debut midweek, making him a strong candidate to retain his starting place. Hugo Ekitike also offers another option in attack. 

Mohamed Salah, who has scored eight goals against Everton in the Premier League, is almost guaranteed to start on the right flank. 

Slot may consider adjustments in midfield, with Alexis Mac Allister possibly stepping in for either Dominik Szoboszlai or Ryan Gravenberch, while Andrew Robertson will aim to hold onto his left-back position.

Everton: Away Form and Derby Record

Everton, managed by David Moyes, have shown resilience after their opening-day defeat to Leeds United. 

They have collected seven points from their last three league matches and advanced to the third round of the EFL Cup. 

Their run included successive wins against Brighton & Hove Albion (2-0) and Wolverhampton Wanderers (3-2), followed by a goalless draw against Aston Villa.

Although goal-scoring efficiency remains an area to improve, their defensive solidity has been gradually restored. 

Still, Everton’s focus will be on correcting their poor Merseyside Derby record. In their last 29 league encounters with Liverpool, they have won only twice, drawn 14 times, and suffered 13 defeats, failing to score in five of the last seven meetings.

Moyes himself has yet to taste victory at Anfield in 20 Premier League attempts, a statistic that mirrors his struggles at Stamford Bridge when managing Chelsea.

Despite this, Everton have reasons to remain optimistic. They have won six of their 11 away matches in the Premier League this year—matching their total number of away victories from their previous 30 fixtures. 

All six of these wins came in 2025, including their last success at Anfield in 2021, when they defeated Liverpool 2-0.

In terms of squad availability, Jarrad Branthwaite remains sidelined with a hamstring injury, while Vitaliy Mykolenko is a doubt. 

Moyes may need to deploy James Garner as an emergency left-back, with James Tarkowski, Michael Keane, and Jake O’Brien forming the defensive line in front of goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. 

Jack Grealish, recently named Premier League Player of the Month for August, and Iliman Ndiaye are expected to operate on the wings, while Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall will likely take the central attacking midfield role. 

Up front, Moyes must decide whether to continue with Beto as the main striker or give Thierno Barry a chance to claim his first goal of the season.
