Daniel Sturridge returns to the Liverpool starting XI for this afternoon's Merseyside derby against Everton at Goodison Park.

The striker, who scored a sublime brace on home soil last weekend, sat out the 1-1 midweek draw with FC Sion in the Europa League.

But he's back from the off for the 225th clash with the Blues, joining forces with Danny Ings in attack at a ground where he found the target two years ago.

Liverpool team: Mignolet, Skrtel, Sakho, Can, Clyne, Moreno, Lucas, Milner, Coutinho, Ings, Sturridge.

Substitutes: Bogdan, Gomez, Rossiter, Allen, Ibe, Lallana, Origi.
