Jamie Carragher has said on Sky Sports Premier League (9:34pm, February 13, 2023) that Sean Dyche’s Everton will have to win the Premier League game against Leeds United at Goodison Park this coming weekend after losing the Merseyside derby against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at Anfield on Monday evening.
Everton went down 2-0 to Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League last night.
It came after a 1-0 win against Arsenal at Goodison Park in the Premier League last weekend.
Everton will next face Leeds at Goodison Park in the league this coming Saturday.
Like the Toffees, Leeds are also in grave danger of getting relegated from the Premier League at the end of the season.
The West Yorkshire club are 17th in the Premier League table at the moment with 19 points from 22 matches.
Leeds are without a manager at the moment after they sacked Jesse Marsch last week.
Everton are currently third from bottom in the standings with 18 points from 22 games.
Former Liverpool defender Carragher was on co-commentary duty for the Merseyside derby on Sky Sports.
The pundit believes that the match against Leeds will be massive for Everton, saying that it will be a cup final.
