Everton players are desperate to end their Liverpool derby hoodoo.

Everton haven't won a derby in the last nine attempts but a win today could spark a lacklustre league campaign into life.

"We have pretty much half a season left to correct what didn't do in first half," said Stones.

"The derby's always massive. This second half of season is really going to take off for us."
