The Toffees were set to welcome the Premier League leader to Goodison Park for the final time in the English top flight.

However, after a meeting between both clubs and representatives from Merseyside Police and Liverpool City Council, Everton confirmed the scheduled showdown will now be played at a later date because of safety concerns.

"Whilst we appreciate this will be deeply disappointing for supporters, the safety of fans, staff and players is of paramount importance," a club statement read.

Two EFL Championship fixtures – Cardiff City v Watford, and Plymouth Argyle v Oxford United – were also postponed, along with Bristol Rovers's League One clash with Bolton Wanderers.
