Liverpool's opponents since the Torres injury: Stoke, Tottenham, Wolverhampton, and Bolton. Not exactly murders row. They went 2-2-0 with both wins at home. And they have only scored 5 goals in those 4
contests.
Everton is 4-1-0 in their last five (league games) with 9 goals for and only 2 against.
Everton is in better form, but Everton has not won at Anfield in ten years.
I agree; under 2.5 looks like the best play. Half of Liverpool's games this season have been under 2.5 goals. 48% of Everton's games have gone under 2.5.
