A number of Liverpool players have dropped early team news hints ahead of their Merseyside Derby with Everton on Wednesday night (7.30pm). Liverpool will go nine points clear of Premier League title rivals Arsenal with a win at Goodison Park.

The Reds have won their last three games since the 1-1 draw to Nottingham Forest last month. Sitting top-of-the-table, they have only lost once in the league.

Everton, on the other hand, have picked up some form under new manager David Moyes and are also unbeaten in their last three games - including a win over Tottenham. Ahead of the clash, Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Jarell Quansah and Ryan Gravenberch took to social media to post a pre-match graphic preview.

Historically, that suggests they will all likely be involved - in some capacity. Quansah has been named as an unused substitute in Liverpool's last five games while Gravenberch will be eyeing his 24th league start.

Mac Allister has also been another regular starter under Arne Slot this term, while Szoboszlai will be eyeing his fifth consecutive league start.

Speaking to reporters ahead of the clash, Slot said: "It's probably going to be a fantastic atmosphere and that's never easy to play against because every single time they cross the half-way line, or they get a corner kick, or whatever happens, the fans will cheer for that. Then you have to be mentally really strong - as an away team - to resist all that, the complete atmosphere, and you still have to be focused on what you have to do; defending the corner kick, defending the set-piece.

"When you have the ball, be as calm as you can in this fantastic atmosphere. But it's not the first time for these players that they are playing in atmospheres like this."

He added: "I hope they can focus on what they have to do, but it's not only tactical, you also have to stand up to those emotions because I've noticed also in the Plymouth [Argyle] game that the intensity of the tackles and how aggressive they were, that was a quality of their players, but it was definitely also because of the emotions in the stadium, so we have to be up for that."
