Crystal Palace vs Liverpool Predicted Lineups, Preview, Odds & Prediction

This is the second meeting between Crystal Palace and Liverpool already this season, the first being the Community Shield; that game finished 2-2 in normal time and Palace went on to win on penalties. No trophies in their clubs history suddenly became 2 in 3 months for Crystal Palace and their South East London faithful. Since that game, both sides have had tremendous starts to their season. Both Liverpool and Crystal Palace remain the only undefeated teams in the Premier League this season. Palace have won 2 and drawn 3 so far this season, keeping 3 clean sheets out of 5 games. Liverpool having won 5 from 5, scoring in every game, keeping a clean sheet in 2, despite having faced Arsenal, Newcastle at St James Park post Isak saga, Bournemouth and Everton in the Merseyside derby. It’s the battle of the undefeated’s this Saturday; will we get a stalemate that keeps both teams records unblemished, will Glasner’s underdogs pull of the upset or will the champions continue their perfect start in defence of their title?

  • Can Palace remain undefeated against the champions Liverpool?
  • Can Liverpool continue their perfect start and make it 6 wins out of 6 to heap the pressure on Arsenal?

Crystal Palace Predicted Lineup:

Crystal Palace Team News:

Same back-5 as always for Palace. They have kept 3 clean sheets through 5 league games this season and Guehi, Munoz and Mitchell have been contributing from an attacking sense this season also.

Wharton returned from an ankle injury that was originally reported to keep him out 6-8 weeks. He was only out for just under 4 weeks in the end and started against West Ham, and finished the game with no issues. He will be fit to start against Liverpool in GW6.

Kamada, who often starts alongside him in the midfield double pivot, is being used in one of the 10 roles alongside Pino while Sarr is out. Who is going to start alongside Wharton, out of Kamada or Hughes once Sarr is back and takes his starting spot back, is one to watch for. I think it will be Kamada, who is the younger, fitter, better player but Hughes does have the trust of Glasner and has put in some good performances so far this season.

Nketiah returned from injury, making a cameo off the bench against West Ham. He is an important sub and rotational cover for Mateta but Mateta will start nearly every league game when fit.

Crystal Palace Players to Watch:

Wharton: Returned against West Ham after a few weeks out with an ankle injury and started. Finished the game with no issues. Will start against Liverpool

Sarr: Ahead of their game against Sunderland in GW4, Glasner suggested Sarr would be back for Liverpool.

Kamada: Has been starting in the 10 role alongside Pino while Sarr is out.

Pino: Will start against Liverpool and continue to start in the 10 alongside Sarr once he returns.

Liverpool Predicted Lineup:

Liverpool Team News:

Slot outright stated none of the ‘big hitters’ will start against Southampton in the EFL Cup on Tuesday night. Do not expect to see Salah, Isak, Wirtz, Gakpo, Van Dijk, Konate, any of the main 3 central midfielders, or Alisson.

Having started against Atletico Madrid, with Slot praising his fitness levels and sharpness, and then playing 25 minutes off the bench against Everton – Isak should be ready to start his first Premier League game, and I believe he will. Gakpo, having started every game this season and starting to look fatigued the last couple of games, should drop to the bench with Ekitike playing left-wing. There is a chance Wirtz plays left-wing, with Szoboszlai in the 10 and Mac Allister in midfield.

Slot, speaking to the media about Alexander Isak, stated “We had recovery yesterday and we are going to train this afternoon. First of all we just have to see how they all feel. All I know is Alex probably felt his body more than ever before after the 60 minutes he played so let’s see how he recovered today then we will see about the line-up later today and you will see tomorrow”.

Curtis Jones is now fit and made another top cameo off the bench. He is proving how important he is to this Liverpool team in his cameos against Arsenal and Everton. He brings control to Liverpool’s game.

Mac Allister started against Everton and was fine, but not his usual self. He has spoken of dealing with personal issues, and has recovered from 2 injuries in the past few months, and does not look to be fully fit and sharp right now.

Bradley started against Everton, and is the profile of right-back you want to start against Palace. He has played well this season despite some tough moments against Grealish.

Liverpool Players to Watch:

Bradley: Should start at right-back over Frimpong. Better suited to play against a team like Palace.

Wirtz: Was rested last game with Liverpool playing 3 games in 7 days. Will start against Crystal Palace.

Ekitike: Gakpo just played 3 games in 7 days, and has had a poor couple of games. Ekitike is in top form and has earned a chance to show what he can do alongside Isak.

Isak: Will start his first league game for Liverpool on Saturday.

Mac Allister: Has returned from multiple injuries in the past 6 months and been dealing with personal issues. Might be one to drop him to the bench against a physical Palace team, and allow him to use these early games as his pre-season.

Gakpo: Started every game so far this season and is showing some fatigue with performances.
