In the just-concluded Liverpool home game against Ewarton, this Merseyside derby has traditionally been intense, with flying sand and frequent red cards becoming the norm. Looking back at the two teams' home grounds, which are just a four-minute drive and within walking distance of each other, it's no wonder that fans of both sides can feel the gunpowder-fueled atmosphere every time.

However, looking at this year's results, Liverpool seem to have the upper hand. Currently ranked 4th in the league, Liverpool has a winning home record, scoring at least 3 goals in every game. Despite failing to take all three points in their last two away matches, the team is still performing solidly, with scorer Mohamed Sana scoring twice against Brighton, making him the team's leading scorer with five goals. Several international players have also played well in international matches. The only concern is that Scottish international Andrew Robertson is injured and may not be able to play in this match. The play of Semmikas will be especially crucial then, and whether he can continue to provide assists on the wing will be one of the points of interest in the match.
