Everton defender Mason Holgate: We're massively motivated for Liverpool

Everton defender Mason Holgate is looking forward to a derby against Liverpool for the Premier League restart.

The Toffees are set to host table-topping Liverpool at Goodison Park following the resumption of top flight football, with the Reds edging closer to a first title in 30 years.

"We can't really concentrate too much on what they're going to be playing for, at the end of the day it's a derby and it means so much to us to get the win. It's more about what it means for us," he told talkSPORT.

"We're all massively motivated, I don't think you need any more motivation than the derby itself to go and win."
