Everton have announced that Saturday’s meeting with Liverpool has been postponed due to “adverse weather conditions”.
The two sides were due to clash at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, with the Reds planning to make the short trip one last time before the Toffees bid farewell to their home ground today. Saturday’s Merseyside derby expected to be a tough test for Arne Slot’s otherwise indestructible side, with Everton winning at home to Liverpool last season.
However, one official announcement from Everton has ruled out their game for the time being, with adverse weather to blame for the postponement.
The news comes after Merseyside Police banned all non-essential travel to the area.
Amber and red weather warnings have been issued across the country after Storm Darragh arrived in the UK. These hazardous conditions have challenged the safety of fans and players alike – disrupting travel and leaving thousands without power across the country.
Everton have yet to give an update on when their highly-anticipated clash with Liverpool will be rescheduled, but have confirmed that more details will follow shortly.
