BBC chief football writer Phil McNulty has been answering your questions.
James asked: Do you think Everton can spring a surprise and beat Liverpool? Wouldn't it be magical if Everton could win the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park?

Everton beat Liverpool at Goodison late last season and it will be a special occasion as the last derby at the great old stadium.
