Liverpool – Everton preview: the match of the week

On Monday, Everton travel to Anfield Road to meet Liverpool in another Merseyside derby, hoping they can build on their recent good form and win their first league match away at Liverpool since 1999.

Everton have won their last three Premier League away matches which equals their longest away winning record in the Premier League era and the longest in 23 years since they won four consecutive top flight matches from November to December 1985.

The Toffees have not conceded a goal in their last five PL matches, which is their joint third longest streak and only two matches shy of their all-time record of seven clean sheets set between November and December 1994.

Everton conceded their last Premier League goal on 7 December when they lost 2-3 at home against Aston Villa.
