The Brazilian will of course be given the pivotal no.10 role in the derby, despite Adam Lallana’s promising Europa League exploits. His ability to create chances for Daniel Sturridge will be our best chance of securing a result.
FC) Danny Ings
Ings played an hour against FC Sion and did nothing to suggest he should be starting the derby, but his performances prior to that and Christian Benteke’s injury means he’ll get the nod again.
FC) Daniel Sturridge
His two goals versus Aston Villa whet our appetites, but derby winning goals at Goodison will send us into overdrive.
