It's a big afternoon for Liverpool's Under-23s today as they make the short trip across Stanley Park to take on Everton in the mini-derby.And it's the Premier League 2 clash, and the fallout to the U23s' 7-0 humbling by Villarreal, that takes centre stage in our latest Academy Show.Host Paul Wheelock is joined by our Liverpool FC correspondent James Pearce to preview the Goodison Park affair and examine why Neil Critchley's side are not hitting the same heights as they did last season.As good as Villarreal were in Wednesday's Premier League International Cup encounter, the U23s were not helped by a string of players being unavailable.But the young Reds should be much stronger against table-topping Everton and James discusses the three players in particular who will be out to impress Jurgen Klopp given that, sooner rather than later, there could be spots in the first-team squad open for them.Our man in the know at Anfield also updates us on the progress of talented midfielder Curtis Jones as well as previewing the in-form U18s UEFA Youth League showdown at Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday.
