Liverpool and Everton kick of an action packed Saturday and they call this fixture the friendly derby for many reasons. On the 19th of December Sadio Mane's 90th minute goal helped steal all three points for The reds but now the stats and form of both teams are different. These are the three things to Expect.
Goal Rush
Though the reverse fixture produced a lone goal four months ago, the situation is different and both teams have been in a rich vein of form for the past two months, it will be interesting to see who outscores the other.
Klopp Glory
Jurgen Klopp can become the first Liverpool boss to win his first three Merseyside derbies but Everton's handler Ronald Koeman who recently ruled himself out of the Barcelona job is not known for lying down making this tie all the more tasty.
A Red Card
This fixture has a league high of 21 red cards and with a lot at stake there will be no doubt that a red card could be on the cards.
Watford v Sunderland
Sunderland manager David Moyes might be running out of time as his side have recorded just two victories in 14 outings, Jermain Defoe's goals seem not to be enough for the struggling black cats, meanwhile Watford have found themselves slowly slipping into relegation waters.
Match Stats
58% of Sunderland's league goals have been scored by Jermain Defoe.
The last three fixtures have ended in a draw.
Watford have scored eight goals in the opening fifteen minutes of games this season, a joint-PL high.
Sunderland have not scored in six of their last seven games.
