As Goodison Park prepares to host its last league derby against Liverpool on Saturday, we look back on the most memorable moments
Goodison Park hosted the first derby between Everton and Liverpool 130 years ago – there was no “Merseyside” to prefix the occasion back then – with the hosts triumphing 3-0 on 13 October 1894. Today’s game will be its last, barring a meeting in the FA Cup, with Everton relocating to a magnificent new stadium at Bramley Moore dock next season. There have been 119 derbies at Goodison. The local rivals have won 41 apiece. Before the final league derby at the historic old ground, we select six of the most memorable encounters.
