Under 2.5 goals.

Well the pressure is right on Rafa with many pundits suggesting a defeat here and his time an anfield will come to an end. Its little wonder right enough with them so far behind in the title race and ofcourse crashing out of the CL in midweek. Big players are just not doing it and if Gerrard or Torres are quiet(or out) theres not a lot else going forward. Oddly enough the back 4 have been shaky, the one area Rafa sides are usually so strong, we have seen them lose a lot of very soft goals.

Everton are also struggling- sitting just above the relegation places. I though it was interesting in midweek when Moyes admitted they are very much in the scrap at the bottom and if performances dont pick up they will be going down. Hes got important players out ofcourse but it has to be said hes wasted a lot of money too. Lescott was a huge loss and obviously that carry on had an effect on the team morale.

Moyes will play this negative- he always does. Im not a fan of his still of football and believe the home team should always try to attack and make chances in any derby game.

It will be the 8 men behind the ball as usual- 2 banks of 4- with the strikers left to feed of scraps. Liverpool are not the most attacking side either under Rafa and i expect them to struggle to break Everton down.

I really wouldnt rule out a 0-0. The 2 managers are always under pressure in these games but this time- more than ever.  Not losing will be on both their minds and i think that will be obvious when the game starts and neither side puts that many players forward when they have the ball.

Everton v Liverpool under 2.5 goals with bet 365 at 1.85
