LIVERPOOL, England -- Liverpool restored their 12-point advantage at the top of the Premier League with a 1-0 victory over Everton at Anfield. It wasn't a vintage performance from Arne Slot's side, who were looking to bounce back from consecutive defeats to Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League and Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final.
Everton defender James Tarkowski was lucky to avoid picking up an early red card for a reckless challenge on Alexis Mac Allister before striker Beto saw an effort ruled out for offside.
