Match Prediction: Crystal Palace 1-2 Liverpool

Crystal Palace have been solid lately, mixing wins with draws. They've shown they can nick points off big teams, like that 0-0 against Chelsea. Liverpool, though, are on fire, winning every game with a knack for late drama, like that 3-2 against Newcastle. This match could be tight, with Palace looking to frustrate Liverpool's attack and hit them on the break.

Liverpool's form suggests they'll keep pushing forward, but Palace's recent results show they can hold their own. Expect a game where Palace sit deep, looking to counter, while Liverpool dominate possession. It might come down to a moment of magic or a set-piece.

Crystal Palace have been in decent nick, with two wins and three draws in their last five. They've shown they can grind out results, especially away from home. That 2-1 win at West Ham and the 3-0 thrashing of Aston Villa show they've got goals in them. They'll need to be at their best to get anything from this game against a rampant Liverpool side.

• Win: 2-1 vs West Ham United (A)

• Draw: 0-0 vs Sunderland (H)

• Win: 3-0 vs Aston Villa (A)

• Draw: 1-1 vs Nottingham Forest (H)

• Draw: 0-0 vs Chelsea (A)

Liverpool are on a roll, winning all their last five matches. They've shown they can win in different ways, from tight 1-0 victories to high-scoring thrillers. Their attack is firing on all cylinders, and they'll fancy their chances against anyone. They'll be looking to keep the pressure on and continue their winning streak at Palace.

• Win: 2-1 vs Everton (H)

• Win: 1-0 vs Burnley (A)

• Win: 1-0 vs Arsenal (H)

• Win: 3-2 vs Newcastle United (A)

• Win: 4-2 vs AFC Bournemouth (H)

Recent meetings between Crystal Palace and Liverpool have been close, with three of the last five games decided by the odd goal. Palace managed a 1-0 win at Anfield in April 2024, demonstrating their ability to upset the Reds. However, Liverpool have won two of the last five meetings, including a 2-1 victory at Selhurst Park. It's often a tight affair when these two meet.

• Predicted lineup: Henderson, Richards, Lacroix, Guéhi, Muñoz, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell, Kamada, Pino (if fit), Mateta

With Pino and Mateta in attack, Palace will look to hit Liverpool on the break. Their solid backline, led by Guéhi and Lacroix, will be crucial in keeping Salah and Gakpo quiet.

• Predicted lineup: Alisson, Bradley, Konaté, van Dijk, Kerkez, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Isak

Liverpool's attack, with Salah, Isak and Gakpo, will look to exploit any gaps in Palace's defence. In midfield, Szoboszlai and Allister will control the game and feed the forwards.

• Will Hughes vs Ryan Gravenberch: Hughes may find it difficult to deal with Gravenberch's incisive passing and impressive work-rate.

• Alexander Isak vs Maxence Lacroix: Lacroix will need to be on his toes to cope with Isak's nose for goal.

• Adam Wharton (Crystal Palace): He'll be key to the home side's hopes of creating chances on the counter-attack.

• Alexis Mac Allister (Liverpool): His tenacity in midfield will be vital if Liverpool are looking to dominate.
