Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers says they won't underestimate Everton going into the derby.
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last seven league matches, having won the last three, while Everton recorded their first win in seven league matches at Crystal Palace last weekend.
But if the Reds have any psychological advantage, Rodgers is not playing it up.
"At this moment in time we as a team are operating at a really good level," he said.
"We should have won the game earlier in the season, that is the reality, but we are hoping going to Goodison we can put in a performance.
"It was a difficult part of the season (for Everton), like us they had a lot of games, but Roberto (Martinez) is a good manager and he will be looking to build some sort of momentum."
