Kuyt wants more derby success

Kuyt scored two penalties, one a last minute winner, when Liverpool beat the Bitters 2-1 at woodworm riddled Goodison Park earlier in the season. Kuyt is hoping for a similar result at Anfield this weekend.

"It's an important game, there's no doubt about that. The derby is always big, but this one is going to be really big. They want to be fourth as well but we're a couple of points ahead of them so we're in a good position. Everton deserve to be where they are at the moment but fifth will be okay for them this season!" the striker told the club's official website.

"If we can win the game then it would be even better for us but we know it's going to be difficult. Everton have had a good season, they've got a really strong squad and they were unlucky the way they went out of Europe on penalties. But we've got the quality to beat them.

"We did it earlier in the season with a good win at Goodison. I've never scored two penalties in the same game before but that was a great day for me.

"The game means a lot to everyone, to the fans and to the players. The supporters tell us all during the week that we have to win the game and that's what we'll be looking to do."
