Current form — Everton v. Liverpool

The form of both teams is one of the biggest things to consider before placing a bet on the upcoming game.

Everton looking for some points

The mood around the Toffees is pretty low right now as a win has proven hard to come by in recent weeks. Only a single point prevents Everton from having nothing to show for their previous 3 games. They claimed a 0-0 draw against Tottenham, before getting trounced 3-0 against Manchester City. Last time out, more disappointment followed as Brentford ran out 1-0 winners.

Liverpool continue dominating

Liverpool look to build on their current momentum with another positive result. Jurgen Klopp’s men have won all of their last three games starting from a massive 4-0 win against Arsenal. They beat Porto by 2-0 in the Champions League followed by a thumping win against Southampton by 4-0 in the English top-flight last time out.

Just limiting an expected defeat might be the target for The Toffees here. Siding with The Reds at odds 1.36 is a no-brainer in the kind of form they are displaying. Should this price be a tad low for your betting strategy, consider adding it to an accumulator.
