Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Tips

Tip 1

In his first month and opening four games as a Palace player, Nketiah has hit this line on three occasions, having only missed the mark in his latest outing at Goodison Park.

During this time, the former Arsenal striker has produced 10 shots – eight of those coming in home games at Selhurst Park.

His shoot on sight policy gives outstanding appeal to the 6/5 on offer for him to have a shot on target against the league leaders.

Tip 2

No player has committed more fouls (12) than Palace’s Daichi Kamada, who is likely to be a busy individual as part of a midfield two directly facing Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai through the middle.

Despite Kamada’s high fouls count, he’s only been carded once in the PL, picking up an additional yellow in their EFL Cup third round victory over QPR.

That aforementioned Liverpool trio have won 28 free-kicks between them in the league, causing all sorts of problems for opponents faring a lot better than the Eagles are at the moment.

Crystal Palace Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

A trip to Goodison Park last Saturday handed the Toffees their first league win of the season and Palace’s third defeat, leaving the Eagles within the drop zone, level on points and goal difference with Leicester.

The hosts will be without Christopher Richards, Chadi Riad and Cheick Doucoure through injury, while Rob Holding is also unexpected to feature due to an alleged falling-out with manager Oliver Glasner.

Crystal Palace Predicted XI: Henderson; Lacroix, Guehi, Chalobah; Munoz, Wharton, Kamada, Mitchell; Nketiah, Mateta, Eze.

Liverpool Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Last Saturday’s 2-1 win over Wolves at Molineux in the late kick-off was followed up with a routine 2-0 win over Bologna at Anfield in the Champions League on Wednesday, meaning the Reds have now recorded five consecutive victories after falling to defeat against Nottingham Forest.

Federico Chiesa, who was absent midweek, is set to join Harvey Elliott on Liverpool’s absentee list for the trip to Selhurst Park.

Liverpool Predicted XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo; Jota.
