The Everton- Liverpool match scheduled to take place at 7:30 p.m. tonight, December 7, in the 15th round of the Premier League, has been postponed.
The weather in Merseyside has become very dangerous due to the latest storm, making it impossible to ensure the safety of spectators.
Storm Darragh is a very worrying situation in the North West of England, with strong winds estimated at up to 112.65 km/h. Along with the strong winds, there has been heavy rain since Friday night until now.
The Liverpool Ground Safety Advisory Council has advised Everton to postpone the game, and Everton have agreed to announce the decision at 8.30am local time.
Officials from both clubs have been advised by the city’s police that members of both clubs should avoid leaving their homes until Sunday morning, when the rain is expected to stop and the wind will calm.
The match may be postponed until 2025 due to the busy end-of-year schedule. Liverpool will be off this round, so the gap with the teams below may be reduced to 4 points, while Everton will be able to rest and regain strength instead of having to face Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City in 4 consecutive rounds this month.
