Can Liverpool overcome history at Goodison Park?
However, history suggests that Liverpool could be in for a difficult evening at Goodison Park. On the two previous occasions that they have gone into an away league game against Everton on an unbeaten run of 19 or more matches, they have lost.
In October 1978, Liverpool's 23-match unbeaten run came to an end with a 1-0 defeat at Goodison Park. And in March 1988, they lost 1-0 to Everton again, this time while on a 31-game unbeaten streak.
Liverpool will be hoping to avoid a repeat of those results on Wednesday. They are currently six points clear of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table and will be looking to extend their lead with a win over their local rivals.
