The two sides meet at Anfield on Sunday, 25 January Merseyside rivals Liverpool and Everton are on a collision course in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
The Reds and the Toffees have a long history of serving up classic Cup encounters.
1906 semi-final: Everton 2-0 Liverpool
The sides have met in the semi-finals on four occasions over the years with Everton winning only this one, the first, as 50,000 Blues and Reds descended on Villa Park. Liverpool dominated early on but the Toffees took charge after the break and won with goals from the superbly named Walter Abbott and Harold Hardman. Everton went on to beat Newcastle United in the final with Liverpool enjoying the consolation of winning their second championship.
1977 semi-final: Everton 2-2 Liverpool, Everton 0-3 Liverpool (replay)
Liverpool were on their way to league and European Cup glory when they also claimed a place in the FA Cup final with victory at the second attempt over the Toffees at Maine Road. Everton were still fuming about a Bryan Hamilton goal that was disallowed late in the first game when the Reds rubbed their noses in it with goals from Jimmy Case, Ray Kennedy and Phil Neal.
1986 final: Everton 1-3 Liverpool
The first of two all-Merseyside final meetings in the space of four seasons. The sides were vying for supremacy in the league but the Blues missed out and had the chance for revenge at Wembley. Gary Lineker gave them the lead but again they were denied as Liverpool struck back with two from Ian Rush and one from Craig Johnston.
1989 final: Everton 2-3 Liverpool (AET)
This all-Merseyside Wembley meeting was heavily overshadowed by the Hillsborough disaster but proved a true classic. Liverpool led after an early John Aldridge goal but Everton forced extra time with a late Stuart McCall effort. Rush came off the bench to put Liverpool back ahead and then settled the match after McCall equalised again with a spectacular volley.
The tie that finished off Kenny Dalglish as Liverpool boss. The first meeting at Anfield ended goalless but the tie exploded into life at Goodison Park. Liverpool led four times after a double from Peter Beardsley and strikes from Rush and John Barnes but Everton hit back with Graeme Sharp and Tony Cottee scoring twice each. The drama was too much for Dalglish, who resigned soon after, and Everton won the third match with a Dave Watson goal.Source: RTE Sport
