Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: Match Preview, Odds & Prediction

In Liverpool's seventh Premier League match of the 2024–25 season, the league leaders will visit Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace. There is no worse opportunity for the Eagles to get their first win of the season than this tie.

Welcome, hosts! With a 10th-place result from last year, Crystal Palace is among the Premier League's best mid-table teams. Oliver Glasner's squad is now in the relegation zone and has yet to win a game this season. Having been one of the most disappointing teams all season, they would be looking for their first victory with all their might.

As for the Premier League standings, Liverpool are one point ahead of Wolves after their most recent 2-1 victory. Despite their stringent transfer restrictions drastically affecting their summer transfer intentions, they had a great start to the new season. Now managed by Arne Slot, Liverpool will be a serious contender for the Premier League crown this year.

Crystal Palace's winless streak in the Premier League extended to six games following their 2-1 loss to Everton in the previous round. The Eagles are in 18th place and have three points from three draws. Palace has conceded the first goal in four of their six league encounters thus far.

Liverpool surpassed Manchester City and ascended to the summit of the Premier League by defeating Wolves by a score of 1-2 on the road. The Reds have triumphed in their five encounters with the bottom ten teams in the Premier League table. Liverpool has tallied the opening goal in five of their six games.

Liverpool to win @ 1.55 on Sky247.ng 

The Eagles had a rough start to the new season, although they finished the previous one with six wins in seven matches under new manager Oliver Glasner. Crystal Palace have failed to win any of their first six matches this season, putting them in danger of relegation. They had lost their last game, 2-1, to Everton, and they haven't gotten into a groove since Glasner took over.

Being in first place in the league and having been virtually faultless this season under Arne Slot's tutelage, Liverpool has made a fantastic start to the new campaign. After a creditable 2-1 victory over Wolves in their most recent home match, the Reds will be looking to continue their winning streak when they travel this weekend.
