Showdown: Merseyside derby will take place on a Tuesday
night
Everton face three tough games in seven days after
the Merseyside derby was rearranged for Tuesday, March
13.
Liverpool's involvement in Sunday's Carling Cup final
meant the Anfield clash had to be postponed from last
weekend.
Everton must now tackle the Merseyside derby
72 hours after a home league game against high-flying Tottenham and
then take on Sunderland in a FA Cup quarter-final tie the following
Saturday.
The Merseyside clash falls just one day short of David
Moyes' 10th anniversary in charge at Goodison Park.
The Toffees' recovery time has also been reduced by all
three games being shown live on TV. The Tottenham game is scheduled
to kick-off at 5.30pm and the Sunderland clash kicks off at
12.45pm.
Liverpool face three games in eight days.
Kenny Dalglish's side travel to Sunderland in the Barclays
Premier League on March 10 before facing Everton three days later
and Stoke in the FA Cup quarter finals on Sunday, March
18.
