They will be aware of the Toffees' desire to ruin their title dream, while also pushing up the table themselves.
On the game's physicality, Klopp told reporters: "It used to be. At the beginning I remember I showed the players videos of (Jamie) Carragher in the derby and Stevie (Gerrard) where he got red cards. I love one, and respect the other a lot.
"That's what the people expect, that if you get a red card against Everton it's fine. It's not, it's absolutely not because we want to win the game, and it's the only reason why we go there.
"At the beginning there were a few situations where I thought it was over the top. Since then it has become a bit settled and I hope it stays like this because it should. At the beginning I thought 'wow, that's what they are allowed to do?!?' and I didn't get that. But I had to learn all these things over the years, obviously.
"Everything that makes it a really special football game with all ups and downs in a game and good and bad and stuff like that, I'm fully in for it. When it goes over the top, I'm absolutely not. That's how it is. Let's see."
