Liverpool 0-2 Everton: Premier League – as it happened

12.58pm EST 12:58

28 min Henderson comes back on, though he’s not moving freely. He’s got serious moxie.

12.57pm EST 12:57

27 min Henderson wants to continue, so it can’t be a hamstring injury. It looks like he’s hurt his groin. Either way, if he carries on he could make it worse. For now Liverpool are playing with 10 men.

12.56pm EST 12:56

26 min Henderson is down after being fouled by Doucoure. In fact, Henderson has pulled his hamstring – it wasn’t a foul at all, though a free-kick was given.

22 min Liverpool are playing with the wind in the first half, so it makes sense to shoot from distance.

12.52pm EST 12:52

21 min Liverpool are starting to hit their stride. Alexander-Arnold, 25 yards out, cracks a fierce rising drive that is touched over by the leaping Pickford. That was a more comfortable save, though still a good one.

12.50pm EST 12:50

20 min: Stunning save from Pickford! The resulting corner is headed away to the edge of the area, where Henderson cuts across a beautiful volley. It’s heading for the bottom corner until Pickford flies to his right and fingertips it round the post. That was a seriously good save.

19 min Mane turns away from a couple of defenders on the edge of the area. Firmino picks up the loose ball, opens his body and sidefoots a shot that deflects wide off Keane.

12.47pm EST 12:47

18 min The strong wind is a perfect excuse to post this video from the glory days of John Beck’s Cambridge.

12.46pm EST 12:46

17 min Kabak, who has made a very nervous start, is given a last warning for a foul on James.

12.39pm EST 12:39

9 min Mane’s dangerous cross is punched away by Pickford. That was a really important save because Jones was waiting behind him with an open goal.

12.37pm EST 12:37

8 min Alexander-Arnold curls a crafty pass into Firmino, whose low cross is intercepted by Holgate.

12.37pm EST 12:37

5 min “Hi Rob!” says Mary Waltz. “Everton fan in California being bombarded by Liverpool and United friends telling me my team has no chance, reminding me how we were destroyed by Fulham! I would like to respond with brave responses but I can only muster, well, depressing acceptance. Oh my we just scored! Is this real? Can we hold on for 86 minutes?”

They managed to hold on the time they won here – that was a very early goal too.

12.34pm EST 12:34

4 min This is the revised Everton formation, by the way.

Everton (5-3-1-1) Pickford; Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Godfrey, Digne; Doucoure, Davies, Gomes; James; Richarlison.

12.33pm EST 12:33

That was such a simple goal. James guided a beautiful pass through to Richarlison, who left Kabak in his slipstream and hammered a low shot across Alisson. He took that superbly.

3 min It looks like Everton are playing with a back three, not the 4-1-4-1 we expected. Carlo lied to us.

1 min Everton win a corner in the first minute after Kabak misjudges the wind. Digne’s corner hits the unsighted Godfrey and drifts a few yards wide of the far post.

12.29pm EST 12:29

“Bundled up in Chicago anxiously awaiting kickoff,” says Mike. “Perhaps the Liverpool PA system could put on the infamous Ezekiel 25:17 speech by Jules in Pulp Fiction right before kickoff to set the tone.”

Imagine what it would be like if there was a crowd.

12.28pm EST 12:28

The players of both sides stroll onto the field. They really are walking through a storm tonight – it’s blowing a gale out there.

12.27pm EST 12:27

“According to George Herbert, the Welsh-born 17th century poet, ‘Living well is the best revenge,’” says Matt Dony. “Everton have (rightly) been given plaudits for many of their performances this season, but a footballing lesson today, combined with a decent run of form to put some daylight between the two clubs would certainly make the point. After spending the first half of the season in vaguely similar league positions. Liverpool ‘living well’ in the Champions League next season while Everton, at best, settle for Thursday nights would constitute some form of revenge. I’m not saying it WILL happen. Just that I’d be very satisfied. (Apologies, Gary Naylor.)”

12.19pm EST 12:19

And here’s Carlo Ancelotti

“[Calvert-Lewin and Allan] were not so comfortable so I prefer to put them on the bench. They can play if we need. [Is there a change of system today?] No. The system at the start will be the same. I put more fresh legs because we played Wednesday night, and it will be a game with a lot of intensity. We want to be ready for that.”

12.11pm EST 12:11

Here’s Jurgen Klopp

“We had one day’s extra recovery, which is important, so we should be ready to go again. I haven’t seen the Everton team yet because you pulled me out here for this interview. [When told Calvert-Lewin and Allan are on the bench] Ha! Carlo, the poker face! I can say nothing about their line-up because I don’t know it.

“It’s a derby, and derbies are historically intense. We have to be intense but calm in the right moments, and channel our emotion in the right direction. When are you are predictable Everton are really good defensively – when they defend deep, it is more of a man-marking system. That’s uncomfortable if you don’t move enough, but if you move enough maybe you can do things. The boys know the solutions, now we have to do it on the pitch.”

Preamble

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Friendly Derby. Arf! There is vengeance in the air at Anfield, where Liverpool and Everton meet tonight. The return fixture, a 2-2 draw at Goodison in October, was the beginning of the end of Liverpool’s title challenge: Jordan Pickford nobbled Virgil van Dijk with a dreadful challenge and Richarlison was sent off for an even worse tackle on Thiago.

Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool are not out for revenge, though nobody really believes him. Liverpool’s idea of retribution will almost certainly involve trying to play rather than kicking Everton off the park. The game has changed since Steve McMahon rattled Vinnie Jones’s shinbone as payback for Jones’s infamous challenge in the FA Cup final a few months earlier.

Whatever Liverpool’s action plan, this is the most keenly anticipated Merseyside derby in a fair while – and not just because of the needle. For once Liverpool and Everton are chasing the same thing, a place in the top four. They are currently sixth and seventh, though both can go level on points with fourth-placed Chelsea if they win their game(s) in hand.

Liverpool have lost their last three league games and Everton their last two, so at least one of them will end a losing streak today. Everton would like to put another couple of stats to bed. They haven’t beaten Liverpool anywhere since 2010, and their last victory at Anfield was in 1999. Three players were sent off that night; just another Friendly Derby.

Kick off 5.30pm.
