Crystal Palace v Liverpool: Premier League – stay

Key occasions

The overall consensus appears to be that Crystal Palace with out Eberechi Eze, Cheick Doucouré, Tyrick Mitchell or Michael Olise of their beginning lineup is a bit like Christmas dinner with out the turkey, stuffing, roast potatoes and gravy. All other than Olise are injured, and even with the fitting winger Hodgson has spoken about managing his sport time.

Pre-match predictions of a landslide Liverpool win are actually dropping by the bucketload. Bear in mind Crystanbul, although.

The headline from these teamsheets is the return of Alisson in purpose for Liverpool, which is clearly a significant boon. The Brazilian was an almighty miss throughout his three-game absence with a hamstring downside.

Jarell Quansah is the opposite slight shock (though to not those that watch him usually), with the 20-year-old handed only a second Premier League begin at centre-back within the absence of Joel Matip. The Warrington-born defender has been most well-liked to Ibrahima Konaté and Joe Gomez.

For Palace, former Liverpool man Nathaniel Clyne makes a begin, probably at left again, whereas Michael Olise’s demotion to the subs’ bench is a bit puzzling. Perhaps a masterplan from Roy. You may by no means inform.
