John McGinn wins Aston Villa their first corner of the afternoon.

It's swung in and Amadou Onana leaps highest, but his bullet header ricochets off the crossbar and Brian Brobbey clears the danger for Sunderland off the goalline.

Everton look very dangerous from those crosses, particularly from the left hand side.

James Garner goes for goal from the free-kick and Giorgi Mamardashvili pushes it away.

Every Everton players in the middle is offside and a couple ran across the goalkeeper's eyeline so the flag goes up.

The home side are looking far more energetic so far.

With Forest playing mid week, Burnley will see this as an opportunity to come here, quieten the fans down early on and get a grip of the game.

They have done quite well so far. This is a key game for them if they want any chance of survivial.

Liverpool seem second to everything at the moment. There's plenty of sarcastic cheers from the home fans when Chris Kavanagh gives Everton a free-kick just outside the box. They're still furious about the earlier penalty shout.

Burnley have been unable to settle so far, having had less than 35% of the ball.

Scott Parker's side - understandably low on confidence - will need to get a foothold on the game if they are to have any success this afternoon.

Free-kick to Everton is a decent position just outside the box on the left-hand side.

Ryan Gravenberch is the player to give it away and the home players are quick to let the referee know that that is not his first foul.

Thomas Tuchel had a look at a few other plays in the last camp and that's never a comfortable position but sometimes that fuels you with that extra motivation and that has certainly been the case for Ollie Watkins

Risky challenge from Curtis Jones and Everton want a penalty!

A long ball is played over the top and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall looks to get on the end of it.

Jones comes across from right-back and looks to nudge the Everton man to the floor.

Referee Chris Kavanagh waves play on and VAR quickly checks and clears. Jones might count himself a little fortunate.

It's been lively and since the goal, it's been all Sunderland. It was a lovely finish, just swept it in with his in step.

Elliott Anderson picks the ball up between the lines and looks to slip Chris Wood in, but the pass is too heavy for the forward to latch on to.

Right idea from Forest.

Liverpool's first corner of the game comes to nothing and Everton look to get out on the break.

The counter is stopped by Ryan Gravenberch, who takes out Idrissa Gueye, and Everton are furious that the Liverpool midfielder is not shown a yellow card.

For Forest, today is about moving the ball quick and trying to get down the side of Burnley, who will not make it easy; they will sit in and try and hit on the break.

Elliot Anderson is going to be key for them today. It is an emotional time. To hold your composure in that moment, hopefully he can get the right outcomes today.

Elliott Anderson fires the ball out to Neco Williams on the left, and the defender surges into the box to win Forest a first corner of the game.

However, the delivery has too much on it and flies out for a goal-kick.

You can see instantly the problems that Everton's physicality is going to cause Liverpool. That's a good save from Giorgi Mamardashvili but it's the first real sign of Everton's aerial threat.

Beto is slipped in down the right channel but then loses his footing as he tries to turn inside Ibrahima Konate.

The striker looked to have been offside anyway but we'll never know.

Beto was very unlucky but what a save from Giorgi Mamardashvili.

Brilliant save from Giorgi Mamardashvili!

Everton swing in a cross from the left, Beto gets across the front post and flicks it goalwards but the Liverpool goalkeeper dives to his left to make a superb stop.
