Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: A tough game for Liverpool

Crystal Palace plays host to Liverpool in round 23 of the English championship. Can the Londoners break their losing streak against Liverpool?

After beating Millwall 2:1 and reaching the fourth round of the FA Cup, Crystal Palace travels to Brighton. Patrick Vieira's side drew in the previous weekend's EFL game. In that encounter, the outcome was a 1:1 draw. As a result of 21 matches, the Eagles have 24 points. Crystal Palace is currently 13th in the English league table.

Brentford were Liverpool's last opponents in the English Championship. Without Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, the Merseysiders were quite active in the attacking phase and dominated for most of it. Jurgen Klopp's side suffered a 3:0 home defeat to the Bees. The Reds are second in the EPL standings, 11 points behind leading Manchester City. Liverpool travelled to Arsenal this week. The Merseysiders beat them with a score of 2:0 to reach the English League Cup final.

Crystal Palace had more time to prepare for the encounter as Liverpool were away against Arsenal in the English League Cup semi-final a few days ago. Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp has decided to field full strength against the Canaries. Can the Merseyside players show their best skills after a couple of days in a tough encounter at the Emirates? We believe the meeting with Crystal Palace will be very tough for Liverpool. We can expect a rather tense encounter, which will see a lot of yellow cards. We also don't rule out that Crystal Palace will put up serious resistance to the favourites and take away points.
