Liverpool Prediction

Liverpool currently hold a four point lead at the top of the Premier League thanks to a 1-0 win away at Brighton last time out, but their lead was previously seven points before title rivals Manchester City dished out a 2-1 defeat upon The Reds at the Etihad Stadium earlier this month.

Manchester City are now hot on Liverpool’s heels and today’s hosts know they can’t afford another slip-up this afternoon, particularly as Manchester City travel to bottom club Huddersfield Town this Saturday.

Back to Liverpool though, and they’ve suffered just one defeat all season so far while they still remain unbeaten at Anfield, boasting an impressive record that stands at 9-1-0 27/3 with Liverpool dropping just 2 points on home turf this season (which was a 0-0 draw with 2nd placed Manchester City back in October).

Aside from the draw with City, Liverpool have swept aside all-comers with notable wins against Manchester United 3-1 and the dismantling of Arsenal in a 5-1 romp last time out on home turf. Goals have been in abundance too, with Liverpool winning and result over 2.5 goals in now fewer than 6 of their 10 home matches to date.

 

Key-Facts – Liverpool v Crystal Palace

  • Liverpool still remain unbeaten at Anfield in the Premier League
  • Liverpool win and Over 2.5 goals combo achieved in 6 of their 10 home matches
  • Liverpool have won the last 3 Premier League meetings against Crystal Palace

 

Crystal Palace Prediction

After registering a 2-0 win away at Wolves it looked like Roy Hodgson’s Crystal Palace outfit had possibly turned a corner in what was an impressive display by the London club in the west midlands at Molineux.

However, Palace’s inconsistent streak once again became evident in last weekend’s 2-1 defeat at home to Watford at Selhurst Park, and the visitors now face the daunting task of keeping a free-scoring Liverpool outfit at bay at Anfield this Saturday afternoon.

Just four points separate Crystal Palace from third from bottom club Newcastle United, but the glimmer of hope for Crystal Palace in this clash with Liverpool is that the visitors have recorded more wins away from home than at Selhurst Park this term.

An away record of 4-1-6 14/17 suggests they stand a chance of getting something from this clash, particularly as they’ve registered back-to-back wins at Manchester City and Wolves in their last two matches on their travels.

That said, anything other than a Liverpool win here would be a shock result.

Betting Tips Verdict

Liverpool have been dominant at Anfield this season and I just can’t see lightning striking twice with Crystal Palace recording another win against a title contender here.
