Supercomputer predicts outcome of Liverpool vs Everton clash
Everton are set to travel to Anfield on Saturday to take on Liverpool in the first Merseyside derby of the season.
The Toffees will be cautiously optimistic for the match after their great start to the new campaign.
On top of this, Liverpool have struggled in many of their opening matches, albeit winning all four league games so far through late winners.
As a result, there is a hope that Everton can finally end their curse at Anfield on Saturday and finally achieve bragging rights.
Liverpool overwhelming favourites for Everton clash
Multiple stars at the Toffees have been sensational in the opening matches.
Jack Grealish won the Premier League Player of the Month award for August, while Iliman Ndiaye has maintained a threat in front of goal throughout.
However, despite Everton’s good form so far this campaign, their chances of getting a victory against Liverpool are slim.
- Everton have had a great start to the season
- Currently they sit sixth, five points behind Liverpool in first
- The Toffees have not lost a match since the opening day
According to Opta on 15 September, the Toffees only have a 12.3 per cent chance of walking away with all three points.
In comparison, Liverpool are at 71.3 per cent of victory, with the odds of a draw being at 16.4 per cent.
Everton’s record vs Liverpool
Overall, Everton have a poor record against Liverpool.
The Toffees have only won 84 matches, whereas the Reds have come out on top in 126, with 87 ending in draws.
Everton’s recent record against the Reds is also horrific, with David Moyes’ side only winning two games against Liverpool since 2011.

Their last win came in April 2024, when Everton beat Liverpool 2-0 thanks to goals from Jarrad Branthwaite and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Now, Moyes will be looking to finally put an end to their curse against their Merseyside rivals with a statement victory at Anfield on Saturday.
