Liverpool's fab four should decide Merseyside derby

There's a new fab four attracting attention in Liverpool and Everton's defenders could be screaming "Help!" during the Merseyside derby if Jurgen Klopp unleashes the full force of his attacking arsenal at Anfield.

Philippe Coutinho, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah have been on the pitch together for just 281 minutes this season, during which time the Reds have scored an astonishing 12 goals at a rate of one every 23 minutes.

Southampton are the only Premier League team to have faced the magic quartet and it was 69 minutes of doom for the Saints, who shipped three at Anfield.

Salah has led the way with a goal every 94 Premier League minutes this season, although Firmino has five in his last four games and Coutinho is coming to the boil nicely with five in his last five.

Mane enjoys facing Everton with an minutes-per-goal record of 118 against Liverpool's local rivals and Coral offer 13-8 that the fab four score three or more between them in the derby, while it's 7-2 that any of them grabs a hat-trick.
