Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Match Summary

Two clubs coming off brutal weeks meet at Selhurst Park on Sunday in the Premier League. Crystal Palace sit 18th, and Liverpool badly need a response before the international break.

Pierre Sage's Palace need at least a point to avoid entering the break inside the relegation zone, and Thursday's late 1-1 Europa League draw with Hoffenheim barely lifted the mood.

Liverpool, fifth in the table, followed a loss to league leaders Arsenal with another defeat at Fenerbahce in the Champions League. The Reds need a huge response.

History offers no edge — Palace and Liverpool have two wins apiece and two draws across their last six meetings in all competitions.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Form

Palace are in free fall in the Premier League, beaten in their last three without finding the net. The defending is the deeper problem — they've conceded at least twice in 13 of their last 15 Premier League matches. Europe brought brief relief, as Daichi Kamada's stoppage-time leveler rescued a Europa League draw with Hoffenheim after Adam Wharton was sent off.

Liverpool arrive bruised. A loss to Premier League leaders Arsenal was followed three days later by a Champions League defeat at Fenerbahce. The road has been kinder, with the Reds collecting 10 points from their four away games this season, and the attack runs through Florian Wirtz operating behind Alexander Isak.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Lineups & Team News

Injuries & Suspensions

Crystal Palace: Takehiro Tomiyasu (Injured/out), Ismaïla Sarr (Injured/out), Chadi Riad (Injured/out), Jean-Philippe Mateta (Suspended)

Liverpool: Hugo Ekitiké (Injured/out), Giovanni Leoni (Injured/out), Jeremie Frimpong (Injured/out), Conor Bradley (Injured/out)

Crystal Palace

The biggest change to the Crystal Palace vs Liverpool lineups comes up front. Jean-Philippe Mateta is suspended after his sending-off in the defeat to Tottenham, so Jørgen Strand Larsen leads the line for the Eagles. Takehiro Tomiyasu and Ismaïla Sarr are expected back only after the international break, and Chadi Riad is also sidelined.

Liverpool

None of Liverpool's four absentees — Hugo Ekitiké, Giovanni Leoni, Jeremie Frimpong, and Conor Bradley — will be available until after the international break. The key question is Ryan Gravenberch, who is hoping to return from the shin injury that kept him out of the Champions League defeat.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Talking Points

The Crystal Palace vs Liverpool prediction hinges on whether Palace can close the gaps head coach Pierre Sage flagged after Thursday — the big spaces that open between attack and defense in transition. That is exactly where Liverpool do damage. Creating chances with through balls is a core strength of this squad, and with Florian Wirtz behind Alexander Isak, Palace's shaky record against counterattacks looks like a real liability.

Losing Jean-Philippe Mateta to suspension leaves Jørgen Strand Larsen carrying a misfiring attack, though Palace do have a knack for fighting back from losing positions, and Daichi Kamada showed against Hoffenheim that he can deliver late. Our pick: Liverpool edge it 2-1, with the Reds' road form and sharper chance creation outweighing a home side that keeps conceding.
