Liverpool vs Everton: Date, Time, Live online and TV schedule

By Joseph Zucker

Liverpool and Everton renew their rivalry, as the Reds welcome in the Toffees for the newest edition in the Merseyside Derby.

Only one point separates the two clubs. Liverpool are in fourth with 43 points, while Everton are in sixth with 42 points. The Reds have taken 10 points from their last six matches, with the Toffees taking 11 from a possible 18 points.

This is generally a match where form goes out the window, but the close nature of these clubs' standing in the table only accentuates the unpredictability of this fixture.

Here's a quick preview for what should be a back-and-forth clash.

When: Tuesday, Jan. 28, at 3 p.m. ET; 8 p.m. GMT

Where: Anfield, Liverpool, England

TV Info: NBC Sports Network (US); BT Sport 1 (UK)

Live Stream: NBC Sports Live Extra (US); BT Sport (UK)

Odds (courtesy of Bloomberg Sports)

Liverpool Win: 45.1 percent

Everton Win: 29.3 percent

Draw: 25.7 percent

Last week against Aston Villa, the Liverpool midfield was exceptionally bad, and the biggest reason for that poor performance was the fact that Steven Gerrard was deployed deeper in midfield. He simply couldn't keep up with Villa's quick attackers. According to Squawka, Gerrard failed to make a single interception, and he lost all six of his headed duels.

To make matters worse, Lucas was injured shortly after his inclusion at the start of the second half. The Brazilian midfielder could be out for two months, leaving Brendan Rodgers with a major quandary on his hands.
