Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has reacted furiously to the Premier League’s decision to reschedule his side's upcoming Merseyside Derby with Everton.
The Goodison Park fixture was originally scheduled for April 8, with kick-off at 14:15 BST.
However, after Liverpool were drawn to face Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the decision was made to bring the derby forward to April 7, with kick-off at 12:45 BST.
Liverpool will meet the Citizens at Anfield on April 4, with the second leg played six days later at the Etihad Stadium on April 10.
And despite the move now allowing his side an extra day's rest ahead of the return fixture against Pep Guardiola's side, Klopp believes moving it closer to the first leg hands the initiative to Everton due to his side having a lack of rest.
