“Virgil van Dijk Calls for Anfield to ‘Be on Fire’ as Liverpool Prepare to Face Everton”
Liverpool captain urges fans to create electric atmosphere in key Merseyside Derby clash
Ahead of tonight’s crucial Merseyside Derby against Everton, Virgil van Dijk has called on the Anfield faithful to bring their energy and passion to help secure a vital win. In the matchday programme, van Dijk said:
“You guys can play your part too. We want Anfield to be absolutely on fire every time we play between now and the end of the season.”
With only five home games left, the Liverpool captain is urging fans to make their presence felt, especially as the Reds face Everton, who are currently on a nine-game unbeaten run. Van Dijk emphasized the importance of the fans in lifting the team, particularly after a tough run of results and a lengthy break from domestic action.
Arne Slot will have his own injury concerns for Everton, but Liverpool’s objective is clear—securing all three points to further solidify their top-four ambitions with a game in hand over Arsenal. The atmosphere at Anfield is set to be electric as the team looks to return to winning ways.
