Virgil van Hype!

New signing Virgil van Dijk makes his Liverpool debut in tonight’s Merseyside derby. Jurgen Klopp has fielded a strong team for the FA Cup third round clash with Everton at Anfield, with Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Adam Lallana all getting starts.

As expected, there is no Philippe Coutinho or Mohamed Salah.

Here is the line-up in full.

Meanwhile, Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has fielded a strong team as the Red Devils welcome Derby County to Old Trafford. Paul Pogba captains the side once again, while there is a start for Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Romelu Lukaku is on the bench after recovering from his nasty head collision with Southampton defender Wesley Hoedt.
