Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Everton

Sports Mole looks at the latest injury and suspension news for Liverpool ahead of Sunday's Premier League meeting with Everton.

Liverpool take on Everton in the Merseyside derby on Sunday knowing that victory may be required to keep hold of their one-point lead at the top of the standings.

Manchester City face Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon, and a win for Pep Guardiola's side would put them two points clear of Liverpool.

However, Liverpool boosted their hopes of ending their long wait for another top-flight title on Wednesday night by thrashing Watford by a 5-0 scoreline.

Here, Sports Mole looks at Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their encounter with the Toffees.
