This weekend marks the tenth anniversary since EVERTON last beat their huge city rivals LIVERPOOL – in any competition! Even though Toffees supporters haven’t had bragging rights for a decade, MATCH has five reasons they can feel optimistic for their upcoming showdown… 1. CLEVER CARLO! Carlo Ancelotti has got his team firing! The mega experienced Italian gaffer is in his first full season as Toffees boss, and it looks like the players are adapting really well to his style. He’s also got a decent record against The Reds – he’s won seven of his 14 games against them, including the 2007 Champo League final, and lost just five! 2. THEY’RE AT HOME! Okay, we know the fans won’t be allowed into the stadium for this clash, but being at home…

DEADLINE DAY DEAL! Arsenal had been linked with the midfield warrior all summer, but the club didn’t announce the deal until 11.15pm on Deadline Day! They didn’t have to negotiate a fee with Atletico Madrid, because they triggered his £45 million release clause–and the baller signed on a four-year contract for The Gunners! MIDFIELD SWAPSIES! Heading in the opposite direction was Uruguay midfielder Lucas Torreira! The snappy tackler joined Diego Simeone’s side on Deadline Day on a season-long loan, but with the option to make the move permanent next summer for around £15 million. It was basically one midfielder for another! AWESOME ALL-ROUNDER! Arsenal’s new No.18 is best known for his defensive qualities, like his top tackling, interceptions and blocks, but he’s also a decent dribbler who can get forward!…

KARAMOKO DEMBELE CELTIC★RW It’s a big season for Dembele as he looks to break into the Celtic first team – four years after making his debut for the club’s Under-20s at just 13 years old! He might only be 5ft 3in, but he makes up for it with his pace and dribbling! POT 85 RAYAN CHERKI LYON★CAM He’s one of only four players to have five stars for skills and weak foot on FIFA 21, and it’s clear to see why! With the likes of Real Madrid, Man. United and Liverpool keeping an eye on the 17-year-old trickster, he won’t be a hidden gem for long – so make sure you snap him up early! POT 88 HARVEY ELLIOTT LIVERPOOL★RW Elliott is exactly what you would expect from a Jurgen…

GABRIEL ARSENAL One of the main reasons Arsenal struggled to break into the PL’s top four last campaign was their dodgy defence, but it looks like Gabriel could be the answer to their problems! The summer signing has settled into their backline much quicker than MATCH expected! DID YOU KNOW? Gabriel is the 10th star to score on his PL debut for Arsenal, and the first to do so in an away match since 2009! PATRICK BAMFORD LEEDS The 27-year-old striker isn’t new to the Premier League, but it looks like he’s finally ready to have an impact on the top flight!

TOP 10 SPENDERS! £1.12bn Prem clubs spent over £1 billion on new signings this summer – more than any other league! CAUTIOUS COTTAGERS! The last time Fulham were promoted to the Prem, they spent over £100 million on new signings, but they were still relegated! They’ve been way more cautious with their cash this time round, spending around a quarter of that total on new additions! BARGAIN! Even though they paid a fair amount for Wolves’ Diogo Jota, we think Liverpool picked up the best bargain of the summer by signing Thiago from Bayern Munich for just £27 million! £72m That’s how much it cost Chelsea to sign Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen – more than any other Premier League club spent on a single player this summer! £71.8m It…
