Joel Matip has a deep understanding of derby matches – and knows just how important Liverpool's clash with Everton is to supporters.
The centre-back was involved in another of world football’s most passionate derbies with previous club Schalke 04 against Borussia Dortmund in Germany.
Since joining the Reds in 2016, Matip can boast an unbeaten record versus the Blues, with the 4-1 victory at Goodison Park last December his third win in six contests.
Liverpool head into the 240th Merseyside derby this weekend on the back of a comprehensive win over Manchester United as they continue to compete for the Premier League, Champions League and Emirates FA Cup.
