Liverpool and Everton are set to clash in a crucial Merseyside derby on Sunday. Both teams are battling injury crises, with Liverpool's woes mounting after Hugo Ekitike's Achilles tendon rupture. Ekitike will be out for the rest of the season and this summer's World Cup. Liverpool's other long-term injury victims include Giovanni Leoni, Conor Bradley, and Wataru Endo. Alisson Becker's return from a hamstring injury is uncertain, while Carlos Alcaraz's participation is also in doubt. Everton's only confirmed absentee is Jack Grealish. A win for Liverpool would put them firmly in contention for a top-five finish, while Everton's point against Brentford last weekend was a valuable outcome.
