Merseyside derby postponed due to weather conditions
Merseyside derby postponed due to weather conditions. Everton have announced that Saturday’s meeting with Liverpool has been postponed due to adverse weather conditions.
The two sides were set to clash at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, with the Reds planning to make the short trip for the last time before the Toffees bid farewell to their current stadium.
Saturday’s Merseyside derby was expected to be a tough test for Arne Slot’s otherwise indestructible side, with Everton victorious at home against Liverpool last season.
However, an official announcement from Everton has ruled out their fixture for now, with adverse weather conditions to blame for the postponement.
The news comes after Merseyside Police advised against any non-essential travel in the area.
Amber and red weather warnings have spread across the country after Storm Darragh arrived in the United Kingdom.
These dangerous conditions have questioned the safety of both fans and players – disrupting travel and leaving thousands without power across the nation.
Everton have yet to provide an update on when their highly-anticipated clash with Liverpool will be rescheduled for, but have confirmed that more details will follow shortly.
