With the Premier League season kicking off, here are five things to know about one of the world’s most exciting soccer leagues.
Will the last edition of the Merseyside derby be topped this time around?
As a refresher, Everton hosted Liverpool in the last derby at Goodison Park in a rescheduled game on Feb. 12. Beto opened the scoring for the Toffees in the 11th minute, before Alexis Mac Allister equalized for the Reds five minutes later.
Of course, it was Mo Salah who broke the deadlock in the 73rd minute for a 2-1 lead. But Everton had one last push in the eighth minute of stoppage time, resulting in an iconic and emphatic Peter Drury [James] "Tarkowski" call.

Less than two months later, Liverpool will host Everton at Anfield as the Reds look to close out the Premier League title, currently being nine points ahead of Arsenal with this game in hand. The Toffees are in no man's land on the table, too high to relegate but not high enough for a European spot, being level on points with 14th-place Tottenham.
