Liverpool assistant manager Colin Pascoe has insisted that the players are focused on Anzhi Makhachkala and are not thinking about the Merseyside derby at the weekend.
The Reds will take on the Russian outfit in the Europa League on Thursday before confronting Everton at Goodison Park in the Premier League on Sunday.
"With the next game, it is always the same," he said. "The boys are looking forward to Anzhi.
"Everton against Liverpool is a massive game, but it hasn't been talked about and isn't being thought about at the moment.
"We are thinking just purely about the game tomorrow."
Liverpool are currently 12th in the Premier League table with nine points from eight matches.
