Crystal Palace vs. Liverpool Preview

Crystal Palace

The Eagles have already played 9 games this year, and they haven’t lost a single one. So far, we’ve seen them post 5 wins and 4 draws, beating two of their EPL rivals on the road, yet failing to take three points at home vs. Nottingham and Sunderland.

You won’t see too many goals in their matches, because 6 of these 9 have ended with under 2.5 hits. Palace is a hard and robust team that prefers physical football with plenty of fight in the middle.

Though, despite all the departures, they still have a very deadly transition and are capable of hitting anyone on a break. We haven’t mentioned that the defense is highly strong as well, with it posting 5 clean sheets.

Liverpool

The Reds are leading the standings and continue to score goals in stoppage time. They resemble Bayer Leverkusen from two years ago, when Xabi Alonso’s team scored a double-digit number of goals in extra time during one campaign.

Liverpool has not lost since failing to beat Palace in the Community Shield. Afterward, we saw them overpowering 5 EPL rivals and one in the Champions League, and are coming off a triumph in the Merseyside Derby over Everton, 2-1.

Five of the 7 official games the Reds had this year were with three or more goals, and four of them saw over 3.5 hits. Slot didn’t change anything in his philosophy and game plan, and for the moment, this gives results.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Head to Head

Palace beat Liverpool in the Community Shield this year, after penalties. It was 2-2 after regular 90 minutes. Last year, they met twice in the EPL. The first game, at Selhurst, saw Liverpool win 0-1, and the second, at Anfield, ended 1-1.

Crystal Palace vs. Liverpool Predictions

Palace is a nasty team, there’s no debate about that, but Liverpool is way stronger than the FA Cup winners. Sure, the Community Shield game didn’t show that, but on the other hand, do know that Liverpool has a motive to play much better and that the Reds know where danger comes from now. Our pick there are the Reds, who are in excellent form and come to Selhurst flying high.

Our verdict: Liverpool wins
