Liverpool derbies
Merseyside Derby
Liverpool vs Everton, among the most-played top-flight derbies in English football history, contested in every Football League / Premier League season since 1962, sometimes called "The Friendly Derby" but the on-field intensity rarely matches that name.
Getting to Liverpool grounds
Transit
Anfield is a 15-minute walk from Sandhills station (Merseyrail Northern line); a free Soccerbus runs from there on matchdays. Kirkdale and Bank Hall stations also serve the area. Goodison Park (until 2025) and the new Hill Dickinson Stadium (from 2025) sit on Liverpool's waterfront. The new ground is a 5-minute walk from Sandhills via the new pedestrian bridge over the dock. Driving is heavily restricted within a 1km matchday zone; the City Centre to Sandhills Merseyrail journey is 10-15 minutes.
Match-day tips
On a Liverpool match-day
Anfield's Kop opens earlier than the side stands. Fans wanting to be in the ground for the pre-match "You'll Never Walk Alone" anthem (sung at every home fixture since 1963) should arrive 60-75 minutes before kick-off. Bag policy is strict A4 or smaller. Photo ID required for secondary-market tickets. Pre-match pubs along Walton Breck Road and Anfield Road accept reservations for groups; otherwise expect 20-30 minute waits 90 minutes before kick-off.
When to visit
Liverpool football season
Liverpool's home season runs August through May. October-March is the most atmospheric window. Rain, floodlights, and the Kop in full voice. European nights (Champions League, Europa League) at Anfield are individually among the most intense single-fixture experiences in club football.
