Comments:

League position: 9th This was Everton's third goalless draw in their last 15 games in the Premier League. The Toffees had now lost two of their last 12 home games in the Premier League (won seven). They had now taken 16 fewer points than at the same stage (33 games) in the previous Premier League season.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Liverpool failed to score for the second time in their last 16 games in the Premier League. The Reds failed in their attempt to win ten or more away games in consecutive seasons in the top division for the first time since 1989-90. Danny Ings made his first start in the Premier League since scoring against Everton at Goodison Park on 4 October 2015 in Brendan Rodgers' last game as Liverpool manager. Alberto Moreno was originally named amongst the substitutes before suffering an injury in the pre-match warm-up. Rafael Camacho took his place on the bench.
