They will probably have no game plan as fat Sam is hardly a master tactician, is he!? He will probably play 5 in midfield with shrek upfront and just tell them to get stuck in and kick the hell out of us. Fortunately, their defence has got a lot more holes than ours, and we should be able to pick them apart. Just like against Brighton/ Spartak etc.
I personally would go full strength, and make subs second half if we are comfortably ahead:..

Migs
Gomez Lovren Klavan Robertson
Wjnaldum Hendo Coutinho
Salah firminho Mane

He may rotate and put the OX in there, or maybe llalana, or even Sturridge instead of Firminho. Either way we should have too much class for this lot.
I just hope it's not milner and Hendo in midfield again

In the Manc Derby, I fancy it will be a draw, which is perfect for us.
Amen

The issue isn't the pitch but the access to the stadium..if transportation will be effected the game will probably be postponed.

That's a valid point also. I think officials are meeting at Anfield in the morning.

The last thing we would want is the match to be rearranged in this hectic period.

I'm travelling down from Newcastle in the morning  will have to keep an eye out. If anyone hears anything keep us updated 

Checking on the official website should be the first port of call matey

I've just woke up and let the dog out the back mate and there's no sign of snow as of yet. It's absolutely freezing though so it wouldn't surprise me if we got a sprinkling of snow at some point. Given its clear now though unless we get hit by some sort of freak blizzard I can't see the game being called off.
Make sure you wrap up warm though, the dog usually likes a mooch around the garden of a morning but it took one sniff of the air and legged it back in the house to get by the fire  . Baltic isn't the word.

Spot on mate. On my way now. Hopefully we smash these

This game is massive. Everton are on a bit of a high. New manager and whilst he has his obvious limitations his teams are never easy to play against. Thanks to West Ham if we give this lot a bit of a spanking we go third and a couple of months ago I never dreamed that I would be saying that !! I just hope Klopp doesn’t try and be too clever with team selection.

It's been snowing quite a lot where I am, and I'm not far from Anfield, hopefully the game is still on.

I predict we will bag at least 3 goals today

Liverpool line-up vs. Everton: Mignolet, Gomez, Lovren, Klavan, Robertson, Henderson, Milner,  chamberlain, Mane, Salah, Solanke.

Milner and Hendo in midfield? Solanke up front? I seem to be saying this every week but I hope Jurgen knows what he is doing, Chelsea lost yesterday, Arsenal are currently 1 down against Southampton and at least 1 team from City and United are going to drop points today as well. How often does that happen? How often do we get presented with an opportunity to make ground on so many of our rivals all at once?
This is a derby game and we are resting our best player...

No Firminho or Coutinho? Milner in midfield? He did the same thing v chelsea and we failed to win. I'm stumped. We'll be lucky to win at all with that lot.

There's a few wisps of snow mate but it's ***** all really. It's not sticking or anything like that.

Pedestrian midfield, is Jurgen afraid that any flair we have in the squad will be cancelled out  by fat Sams tactics and he's decided to substitute Brawn for Brain ?

My confidence for 3 points in this game has taken a knock
