Everton's Derby Belief Despite Anfield Nightmares

Why this matters: A victory at Anfield would not only break a long-standing curse but also signal a significant step forward for Everton under David Moyes, proving their new acquisitions have made a tangible impact.

Everton's recent form and summer signings suggest they could pose a greater threat to Liverpool than in previous years. New additions like Jack Grealish, Iliman Ndiaye, and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall bring creativity and dynamism to the attack. Grealish, in particular, has quickly become a key playmaker, leading the Premier League in assists. Liverpool, while still a formidable force, has shown defensive vulnerabilities, particularly in maintaining leads. Their reliance on late goals indicates potential weaknesses that Everton can exploit with sustained pressure and an early lead. Historically, Moyes has adopted a pragmatic approach at Anfield, but with the new attacking talent, a more expansive strategy could yield better results. Everton's ability to capitalize on set-pieces, with players like Jake O’Brien and Michael Keane, also adds another dimension to their attack.

Everton has only won once at Anfield since 1999.

Key signings include Jack Grealish, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Iliman Ndiaye.

Moyes often uses a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Liverpool has shown vulnerability, letting two-goal leads slip in multiple matches.
