The team sheets are in for the Merseyside Derby, and Liverpool's lineup features a major boost as Alexander Isak leads the line against Everton. The Swedish striker, recently back from a lengthy injury, gets the crucial starting nod at centre-forward.

Manager Arne Slot has rung the changes after a midweek Champions League defeat, making four alterations to his side. The experienced trio of Andy Robertson, Mohamed Salah, and Cody Gakpo all return, alongside midfielder Curtis Jones. With a defensive reshuffle, either Jones or Dominik Szoboszlai is set to slot in at right-back, while Giorgi Mamardashvili continues between the posts.

This fierce local rivalry always promises high intensity, and Liverpool's attacking selection suggests they're going for the win. Isak's physical presence and Salah's relentless threat on the wing will be key battles to watch as the Reds look to dominate at Goodison Park.

Liverpool Starting XI: Mamardashvili; Szoboszlai, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Jones; Salah, Wirtz, Gakpo; Isak.
