Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti is hoping Everton will not host local rivals Liverpool when they clinch the Premier League.

With Liverpool 22 points clear at the top of the table, thoughts have turned to when they could clinch a first title in 30 years.

Dependent on results the Reds could claim the title at Goodison Park on March 16.

Asked what he thought of that prospect, Ancelotti said: "The thought is that Liverpool is going to win the Premier League - I hope not at Goodison Park!

"There are a lot of stadiums, why in Goodison?"
