Good morning and welcome to our live coverage of David Moyes' Everton press conference to preview the Merseyside derby against Liverpool at Anfield on Saturday.

While his side were frustrated not to turn their dominance into three points in drawing 0-0 at home to Aston Villa last Saturday, the performance underlined the progress they have made.

But there is no doubt a trip to a Liverpool team, who sit top of the Premier League after winning the opening four games of their title defence, represents the toughest test of Everton's campaign so far.



The big question facing Moyes will be whether left-back Vitalii Mykolenko will be fit to face the Reds after he was forced to miss out against Villa.



There could also be developments on centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite, who has yet to play this season..

Joe Thomas and Chris Beesley will be bringing you updates from the press conference.
