Liverpool boss Matt Beard has provided an update on the fitness of his squad ahead of Friday's Merseyside derby at Goodison Park and outlined the lessons learned from the meeting between the two teams at Anfield earlier this season.
The Reds were comfortably beaten 3-0 by their local rivals back in September in what was only their second Women's Super League fixture since their promotion at the end of last season. Since then, the Reds have climbed the standings and now sit eighth, six points behind Friday's opponents.
The scale of the occasion may have got to the players in the reverse fixture at Anfield, but Beard is confident the lessons they learned that night will only serve them when they make the trip across Stanley Park tomorrow night.
