Derby day is almost here for Liverpool, who face rivals Everton at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday.
The Reds are hanging on in the Champions League race, and they can now focus fully on the Premier League after their elimination from this season's edition of the Champions League during the week.
As things stand, Arne Slot's men are currently in fifth spot, three points behind each of Manchester United and Aston Villa, and they will feel as though they still have a solid chance of making the top four cut, even though fifth spot has become an additional Champions League place.
As for Everton, they are involved in a battle for Europe themselves, just goal difference behind seventh-placed Brentford as things stand, though eighth also has a chance of becoming a European spot.
Ahead of what will surely be another exciting Merseyside derby, we have rounded up the latest injury news surrounding both sides.
