Everton midfielder Allan has recalled his strong record against Liverpool for former club Napoli ahead of his potential first Merseyside Derby on Saturday.
The Brazlian's arrival this summer has formed part of a new-look Toffees who have made a flying start to the season under Carlo Ancelotti and sit top of the Premier League.
Thair form means there is an argument the Blue side of the city go into Saturday's derby as favourites after champions Liverpool suffered a shock 7-2 defeat against Aston Villa last time out.
The midfielder was named as the best player on the pitch when Napoli took a 1-1 draw from Anfield last season while he has also started in 2-0 and 1-0 victories over the Reds for the Serie A side.
