LIVERPOOL resume their Premier League campaign needing just two wins to confirm a first title since 1990.
Jurgen Klopp’s Reds have dominated at the summit this season, losing just once all campaign and on the cusp of a first crown of the modern era.

Man City’s victory over Arsenal on Wednesday means they can’t win the title here at Goodison, but three points would put them well on their way.
The Toffees under Carlo Ancelotti will be keen to frustrate their local rivals though and haven’t lost a Merseyside derby here since 2016.
