The Women’s Super League run-in is well underway, with only a few games left to decide who will be champions and who will be relegated down to the Championship.
Only West Ham separate Everton and Liverpool in the table, with the Blues currently sat in sixth and the Reds in eighth. It is Liverpool’s first season back in the WSL after their relegation when the 2019/20 WSL season was cancelled due to COVID-19.
Everton are currently eight points above their Merseyside rivals, but they have played an extra game after losing 3-2 to Brighton midweek. Liverpool and Everton faced off at Goodison Park for the first time in the WSL almost a month ago with the match ending in a 1-1 stalemate, although Liverpool will feel hard done by as a second goal for them was controversially ruled out.
