Sadio Mane update

Jürgen Klopp offered an update on Sadio Mane's injury in his post-match press conference. You can read it by clicking here.

Watch Anfield's tribute to Ronnie Moran...

JK: "I don't know exactly what the problem is with Mane and I don't want to speculate...we have to wait."

JK: "Now we have to recover and need to be ready again. We will fight for everything. My boys showed again they are really to fight for everything. Hopefully we can get there."

JK: "When I saw Sadio in the dressing room, it didn't look like he'd be ready for Wednesday. Hopefully it's not serious, but it's not nothing."

JK: "I said to the boys before the game, we needed a mixture a being really smart as well as emotional."

Jürgen Klopp: "I thought it was deserved. Like always, you have to learn a little bit from the game. We knew about the intensity we needed to be ready for - and I thought we were. After the first few minutes, we controlled the game."

Here's how the table looks after that victory over Everton...

All the post-match stats and Opta widgets you need...

Mirallas goes on a surge into the area before blasting over the crossbar.

Alexander-Arnold smacks one at goal from the edge of the box, but it's too close to Robles. Get the feeling he fancies a goal here does Trent.

Lovely play from Clyne, who zips down the right and slips a low cross in for Origi, but Robles just manages to get there first.

Lovely play from Clyne, who zips down the right and slips a low cross in for Origi, but Robles just manages to get there first.

Can breaks away down the right and pulls the ball back for Alexander-Arnold, whose scuffed effort is clawed away by Robles. What a moment that would have been!

Two chances in quick succession for the Blues as first, Holgate's driven volley is deflected towards goal and Mignolet manages to claw it away. Barkley retrieves and crosses, where Calvert-Lewin heads over the bar unmarked.

Barkley works space for a shot, it strikes a Liverpool defender and deflects into the gloves of Mignolet.

This doesn't look too good for Sadio Mane. He's accidentally caught by Leighton Baines as he tries to close down the Everton full-back and he's not recovered from the knock. Looks like he'll need to come off.

Now at the other end, Can strikes low towards goal, it cannons against Williams and almost breaks for Coutinho, but he can't control.

Barkley's free-kick into the Liverpool area from deep is met with a prod from Williams, but Mignolet is able to claim.

Here's how the numbers are looking at half-time...

Coutinho lifts a left-footed cross into the area from the right, which Firmino is inches away from connecting with via his head.

Baines lines up a free-kick from 25 yards, but he cracks it into the Liverpool wall.

Super Sadio

Close

It's almost 2-0 as Can and Coutinho play a one-two that releases the latter into the area. He cuts inside and drills goalwards. Robles gets a hand to it but it's heading over the line until Phil Jagielka nods away from under the crossbar.

Rest in peace, Ronnie Moran.

A tribute to Bugsy

The Kop holds aloft a mosaic that simply reads 'Bugsy' in memory of Mr Liverpool, Ronnie Moran, as the entire stadium - including the visitors' section - holds a minute's appaluse in his honour.

You'll Never Walk Alone is bellowing out around Anfield. Kick-off is just moments away.

How are the nerves?

Here is how the Premier League table stands ahead of this weekend's round of fixtures...

Stat attack

• That victory at Goodison Park earlier in the season moved Liverpool up to 90 wins from the previous 227 Merseyside derbies; Everton have 66, with 71 meetings drawn.
• Only Manchester United (twice) have prevented the Reds from scoring in their 29 league games at Anfield under Klopp.
• Liverpool are unbeaten in the last 11 league derbies played in the month of April, since losing 2-1 at Goodison in 1965. They have never lost to Everton in 10 April league meetings at Anfield.

You can hardly have forgotten, but here's what happened when the sides last met, in December...

Further tributes will be paid to Ronnie Moran - who dedicated 49 years of his life to Liverpool as a player, captain, coach, caretaker manager and more - ahead of kick-off.

The Kop will form a special mosaic in his name as a minute's applause is observed by all at the ground.

Today's matchday programme cover honours 'Mr Liverpool', Ronnie Moran, who passed away last week at the age of 83.

Speaking of the dressing room, Liverpool will use a brand new one at Anfield for the first time today. Take a look inside their refurbished quarters in the video below...

Nobody in the Reds dressing room will need any reminder of the importance of today's game.

"I'm not skilled in a lot of parts in life but maybe I'm genius in understanding derbies because I didn't need a second to understand how important this game is," said Klopp at his pre-match press conference.

"I played a few in my life - this is the third against Everton - I played a lot of derbies in my career and it's this moment when the world around stops for 90 minutes in a specific city or region. That's good because we all know football is not the most important thing in the world, but we love to think that in a few moments it is."
