In their upcoming Premier League match, Liverpool will play Everton as Jurgen Klopp’s team gets ready for yet another early start.
The Merseyside derby against Everton is the next Premier League match for Liverpool.
On October 21, at 12:30 p.m., Jurgen Klopp’s team plays host to their local rivals at Anfield in the first matchback following the international break.
Players returning from international duty with injuries is a risk that frequently arises during such breaks in the domestic schedule.

Sadly, that’s what happened in this case when Scotland’s Euro 2024 loss to Spain saw Andy Robertson pulled off with a shoulder injury. It is unclear how long the left-back will be out injured, but there is a chance he won’t make a rapid recovery.
The club’s South American quartet will each be participating in World Cup qualifiers in the days preceding up to the derby before making the lengthy trip home to England, which will present another challenge for Liverpool before playing against Everton.
On October 17 (October 18, 1am UK time), Brazil will play Uruguay, with Darwin Nunez heading the line for the latter. The fact that Alisson may not participate in this match because his own county has continued to bench him is a plus.
While Luis Diaz will be playing away from home as Colombia visits Ecuador, Alexis Mac Allister and Argentina travel to Peru. As was the case during the previous international break (with the exception of Mac Allister, who started against Wolves), there is a good possibility that Nunez, Mac Allister, and Diaz will not be risked for Everton.
The apparent solution to the Robertson issue is Kostas Tsimikas, who will guarantee that the Greek defender is prepared for a string of starts.
