Everton make Yerry Mina decision as two changes made against Liverpool

Mason Holgate will start the 240th Merseyside Derby for Everton against Liverpool at Anfield.

Holgate replaces Yerry Mina, who does not feature in the squad after his return from injury in the 1-1 draw at home to Leicester City on Wednesday.

Fabian Delph also makes way, with Abdoulaye Doucoure starting alongside Alex Iwobi and Allan in midfield.

Richarlison will lead the frontline after his 50th goal for the club earned a late draw against Leicester. He is joined in attack by Anthony Gordon and Demarai Gray.

The decision means Frank Lampard has resisted the temptation to start Salomon Rondon following his useful cameo in midweek.

Jordan Pickford, Seamus Coleman and Vitalii Mykolenko make up the starting line-up for the Blues.

Pickford, Coleman, Godfrey, Holgate, Mykolenko, Doucoure, Allan, Iwobi, Gray, Richarlison, Gordon. : Begovic, Kenny, Keane, Delph, Branthwaite, Rondon, El Ghazi, Alli, Price.
