Everton host rivals Liverpool at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium for the first time in a crucial Merseyside derby in the Premier League.
The Toffees are in the hunt for European football and have the chance to close the gap to Liverpool to just two points, which would add more misery on under-pressure boss Arne Slot.
Liverpool suffered their 17th defeat of the season as they went out of the Champions League to holders Paris Saint-Germain in midweek, in a match that also saw them lose Hugo Ekitike to a serious injury.
Now, the Reds face a fight to secure the final Champions League qualification spot and keep a hold of fifth place, but Everton themselves could enter the race if David Moyes oversees a win against their fierce city rivals.
When is Everton v Liverpool?
Kick-off is at 14:00 BST on Sunday 19 April at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
How can I watch it?
It will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage starting from 13:00.
What is the team news?
Everton are still without Jack Grealish but David Moyes has no new fitness concerns following the 2-2 draw at Brentford last weekend.
Liverpool will be without Hugo Ekitike for the rest of the season while Arne Slot confirmed that Alexander Isak is still unable to play 90 minutes after his own injury lay-off. Mohamed Salah and Rio Ngumoha could return. Joe Gomez is unavailable and Alisson Becker remains out.
Everton XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Beto
