Liverpool are gearing up for their return to Premier League action against Everton tonight.

The Reds will face the Blues in the latest instalment of the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park. It will also be the final derby fixture of the Jurgen Klopp era at Liverpool.

Wednesday's game comes after Liverpool recorded a 3-1 victory over Fulham to return to winning ways in the Premier League. The Reds face Everton in the first of their final five fixtures before the campaign draws to a close.

Klopp's side, however, will head to Goodison without several important players due to injuries. The latest player to pick up a knock is Diogo Jota, who suffered a hip injury against Fulham.

Jota has only recently made his return from a knee injury and scored in the 3-1 victory at Craven Cottage. However, Klopp confirmed that Jota will be sidelined for around two weeks and, as a result, will be unavailable for the game against Everton.

It's not just Jota who will be unavailable for the Reds. Conor Bradley, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Ben Doak also remain on the sidelines in recovery from their respective injuries and will not be involved against the Blues.
