Liverpool Aims for Victory Against Everton in Crucial WSL Clash

Liverpool, March 28: Liverpool travels to Goodison Park today, determined to end an eight-game winless streak against Everton and secure their place in the Women’s Super League (WSL).

The Reds have moved five points clear of the relegation playoff spot under manager Gareth Taylor, who has overseen significant defensive improvements recently. Currently, Liverpool is on a three-match unbeaten streak across all competitions and will look to their 2-1 FA Cup victory over Everton last month as a model for success tonight.

Gareth Taylor manages a squad impacted by a long-term injury list. Key players Sam Kerr, Marie Hobinger, and Sophie Roman Haug remain sidelined. As a result, Mia Enderby and Olsson will spearhead the attack, hoping to overcome a goal drought that has affected their away performance this season.

Risa Shimizu and Fuka Nagano have recently returned after winning the Asia Cup with Japan and are expected to slot directly into the starting lineup. Jennifer Falk continues in goal, aiming to become one of only seven keepers to achieve five shutouts in their first eight WSL matches. She will be supported by a back four that includes the returning Shimizu and the seasoned Gemma Bonner.

Bonner has a strong record against Everton, having scored three career goals against them. In midfield, Nagano will join Megan Campbell and Cornelia Kapocs, who is the only player to start every league match for the Reds this season. Liverpool has struggled to secure an away victory all year, making it crucial for them to find a clinical edge tonight. They are eager to claim their first league derby win since May 2019.

Liverpool Predicted Lineup

Liverpool Women Predicted XI (4-3-3): Falk; Shimizu, Clark, Fisk, Bernabe; O’Sullivan, Nagano, Kapocs; Enderby, Holland, Olsson

The WSL fixture is set to take place at Goodison Park on Saturday, March 28, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 12:00 GMT.
