Half Time: Liverpool 2-1 Everton

Liverpool have not been perfect in the first half, some sloppy passes and challenges. They are definitely the better side though. Everton is likely to get a railing from their boss at halftime. The Toffees have looked like rubbish and are making a lot of silly mistakes, which is okay by me.

The Reds should look to build upon their successes in first half. So far, my prediction of a 2-1 win by Liverpool is holding. I can easily see this going 3-1 – Liverpool’s front 3, Coutinho, Firmino, and Mane have looked lethal and it will only take another mistake by the Everton defense for the Reds to slip in there and touch another one into the back of the net.
