Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has urged his team to keep their composure while maintaining full commitment when they take on local rivals Everton in the Merseyside derby this weekend.
The Reds started the season in promising form but back-to-back defeats against Stoke and Tottenham knocked their progress somewhat.
A 2-1 victory over Wolves helped to restore their title ambitions but Dalglish knows it will take more than inconsistent form to overcome their bitter rivals in what will be the 216th Merseyside derby on Saturday.
"The most important thing for us is to be confident, composed and have the belief we can win the game," he said.
"It is up to us to get that into our players and get them to believe it.
"We know we have to be totally committed to get the result because if we aren't we won't get anything.
"You have to earn things you want in this life and if we want three points from Goodison on Saturday then we will need to stand up and be counted because they will make it difficult for us."
