Everton and Liverpool played out a tepid goalless draw on their return to Premier League action at Goodison Park, delaying the visitors’ title charge.
Liverpool went into the game needing six more points to clinch their first Premier League title but were blunted by the absences of Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson, mustering only three shots on target.
It was Everton who had the best chances of the game late in the day, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Tom Davies and Richarlison all going close in a matter of minutes.
But neither side could find the breakthrough and has complicated Liverpool’s potential title win. They remain 23 points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table
