Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard insists he and his team-mates have all the motivation they need as they prepare to take on fierce rivals Liverpool on Sunday.
The Toffees face their arch-enemy knowing a win at Anfield could take them above Liverpool in the race for fourth spot.
"I don't think you ever need any incentive in derbies but there will be this year because of how close we are," Howard told Everton's official website.
"We are looking to get a result and that would be the case no matter what."
