Liverpool tops Everton at Anfield, Merseyside streak hits 17 matches

The streak continues.

Liverpool handily topped rival Everton 3-1 on Saturday in another fierce edition of the heated Merseyside rivalry, and by doing so ensured the Toffees' winless Premier League run at Anfield continued unabated.

Everton, outdone by goals from Sadio Mane, Philippe Coutinho, and Divock Origi, hasn't won a league encounter at Liverpool's famous ground since 1999, being outscored 29-9 in that time.

The win pushed Liverpool provisionally to second in the table, while Everton, whose lone goal came from Matthew Pennington, remains firmly slotted in seventh.
