Crystal Palace vs Liverpool
English Premier League
Date: 25 February 2023, Saturday
Kick-off at 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
Venue: Selhurst Park (London).
Liverpool will try and bounce back from the painful Champions League defeat to Real Madrid as they travel to the capital to lock horns with Crystal Palace on Saturday evening at Selhurst Park.
The Reds conceded five goals in a crazy seven-goal thriller against Los Blancos on Tuesday evening to get on the brink of the elimination from the elite continental competition.
Jurgen Klopp’s men will hardly annul a three-goal deficit in the rematch at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, meaning the domestic league is their only way to secure the Champions League football for next season.
At the moment, the Reds hold the eighth position in the Premier League table, sitting seven points behind Tottenham Hotspur in fourth place but owning two games in hand on Spurs.
Jurgen Klopp’s troops celebrated an important 0-2 win over Newcastle last weekend at St. James’ Park.
They will be the favorites here against Crystal Palace who are winless in eight subsequent outings across competitions.
The Glaziers drew in four of the last five outings in the league. We must say Patrick Vieira’s squad were unlucky to concede a last-gasp equalizer in a 1-1 stalemate to Brentford seven days ago on the road.
Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Head-to-head
- Liverpool will go into this on the back of 12 wins and a draw in the last 13 head to head matches against the Glaziers.
- The lone draw, however, came in this term of the Premier League as Crystal Palace held the Reds to a 1-1 stalemate in mid-August last year at Anfield.
- Neither of the previous two head to head meetings between these rival saw three or more goals scored.
Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Prediction
Liverpool will be forced to shift the full attention to the domestic success after a disappointing Champions League loss to Real Madrid on Tuesday night. They have Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota back available after lengthy injuries.
The Reds looked great last weekend against Newcastle at St. James’ Park and we have no other option but to back them to beat Palace on Saturday night at the 1.72 odds.
