In the 34th week of the Premier League, Liverpool and Everton will go head-to-head in the Merseyside derby. The fight to be played at Anfield awaits football fans on Sunday, April 24.
When we look at the two teams, we can say that Liverpool is the most successful city in football in England. Everton have 9 league titles, while Liverpool have 18. Together, the two teams have brought 27 league titles to Liverpool. If we compare United and City in Manchester or Arsenal and Tottenham in London, we can see that things are a little more balanced in Liverpool.
In derby rivalry, we can see that Liverpool is ahead. In fact, until the '70s, Everton were way ahead of their opponents, but starting from the 70s, Liverpool caught up with them. Everton seemed to be closing the gap in the late 90s, but Liverpool managed to pass Everton in derbies.
Of course, there was always a big rivalry between the two teams, but it was a friendly derby. Then, when the date was May 29, 1985, the Heysel disaster happened. Before the match between Liverpool and Juventus in the final of the European Champion Clubs' Cup, the wall behind the stands collapsed because of the panic caused by the Liverpool fans attacking the Italians, and 38 Italian fans got stuck in the fence and lost their lives.
Margaret Thatcher, the longest-serving prime minister in the UK and the country's first female prime minister, had decided not to participate in European cups for 5 years, saying, "I will punish these animals." Thatcher also wanted Liverpool to be banned from European cups indefinitely, but UEFA replied, "5 years is enough". After the Heysel disaster, no English team could take part in European cups for 5 years.
One of these teams was Everton. And Everton was taking Europe by storm at that time. Who do you think Everton blamed for this situation? Of course, Liverpool fans. In fact, everyone in England blamed them, but it must be easier to be enemies with someone you live in the same territory and whose face you see every day. The tension in the city was reflected in the matches, too. In fact, the number of red cards shown in a match in the mid-80s was recorded as a British record. Kicks were flying in the air, fights were always there.
This season, the two teams have been on the field with different goals in their mind. While Liverpool are chasing the Premier League title, Everton are trying to stay in the Premier League. Let's see who will be the winner?
