A February midweek fixture looks the most likely of the few options available for the rearranged Merseyside derby
The last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park will almost certainly take place under the lights after the decision to postpone the original fixture due to severe weather . Everton were due to host Liverpool in the lunchtime kick-off this weekend but the high winds brought by Storm Darragh led to the match being called off due to safety concerns.
That would make the first potential dates for a rearranged derby to be in the week after the FA Cup fourth round on February 8 or in the week after the Premier League games on February 15, when Liverpool face Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton travel to Crystal Palace. Those two midweek slots are scheduled to host Champions League football but Liverpool look set to avoid those first knockout games by qualifying directly for the last 16 of the competition.
