Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is convinced Everton rival Dave Moyes is deploying some kidology in their battle for fourth-place this season.
"(The derby) it could be really important, but it depends on the other games before then. We'll have to wait and see the position both teams are in before the game but clearly it will be an important game."
Asked if he believed Moyes was playing mind games when insisting Liverpool remained favourites, Benitez was adamant: "Yes."
