Crystal Palace will be looking to improve on their last outing here following a 2-1 Premier League loss in their previous game against Everton.

In that game, Crystal Palace managed 59% possession and 17 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. The only player to score for Crystal Palace was Marc Guéhi (10'). Everton had 8 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. Dwight McNeil (47', 54') was the scorer for Everton.

Over their last 6 games, Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace have netted a combined total of 10 times, with that being an average number of goals scored per match equal to 1.67.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Crystal Palace:

- have not been beaten in their last 2 league matches at home.

- have not won at home in their last 3 matches in the league.

Team News: Crystal Palace

We think that The Eagles look set to employ a 3-4-2-1 formation this time and select Dean Henderson, Trevoh Chalobah, Maxence Lacroix, Marc Guehi, Daniel Munoz, Tyrick Mitchell, Adam Wharton, Jefferson Lerma, Ismaila Sarr, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta.

Liverpool go into this clash after a 2-0 Champions League win with the downing of Bologna in their most recent match.

In that game, Liverpool had 52% possession and 9 shots on goal with 4 on target. For Liverpool, the goals were scored by Alexis Mac Allister (11') and Mohamed Salah (75'). On the other side, Bologna got 12 shots on goal with 2 on target.

A run of reliable displays from the Liverpool defence has seen the number of goals they've conceded amounting to 4 from their past 6 clashes combined. During the same period, their own forwards have managed to score 14. We will find out whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.

Their previous form shows that Liverpool:

- remain unbeaten by Crystal Palace when having played them away from home in the previous 9 league games. An amazing record against them.

- are undefeated in their last 5 away league matches.

Thanks to a largely full-strength group of players, there's only the one fitness worry for the Liverpool boss Arne Slot to contend with. Harvey Elliott (Broken foot) won't be in action.

We believe The Reds will likely play in a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Alisson Becker, T. Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Andrew Robertson, Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota.

Statistics: 1-2-2 (0-1-1)
