Elfeesh asks:

This will be an interesting game, both sides are depleted badly by injuries – especially at the back. Liverpool are on a complete second team for the back line while Everton only retain Baines in theirs. Could ultimately be a contest between the strikeforce, which will still be a pretty close run thing. I would expect Sturridge and Suarez to win out but with Liverpool it's nigh upon impossible to call.

My question for Andy is – Liverpool's midfield is clearly below standard and the back four are shaky. Henderson is often eclipsed when Gerrard is on the field and Gerrard himself is certainly something of a liability as a "quarterback". Would you expect to see Liverpool be dominated in the middle of the park or would you expect the occasion to bring something more out of them? Despite my slating of Gerrard, he often tries especially hard during the derby.
