Is there even a good reason for this and seems weird sticking two title rivals in that time. Can imagine it will also be very difficult for Liverpool fans travelling up from London so early to get to the game on time

Isn’t it because broadcasters want the biggest teams to be on TV, but at the same time local authorities have to manage congestion and so 12:30 slots are spread between the major cities, but because Everton suck it’s up to Liverpool to pick up their slack? That’s the only explanation I’ve heard which makes sense of the large discrepancy between Liverpool and the rest of the Big 6, what the other 5 have in common is that they share a city with at least one other of the Big 6.
