Crystal Palace form and stats

4 victories, 4 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Crystal Palace have to build on here at Selhurst Park in the Premier League. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Selhurst Park, but a victory now would be sweet for Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace travelled for their previous game, a trip to Brentford that ended 1-1. Eze was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Brentford after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today? Midfielder Olise was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.72 (out of ten) in that game. Olise served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 3 of 3 times and had 25 successful passes (of 26 total).

Before that, Palace drew at home versus Brighton & Hove Albion.

Crystal Palace have conceded 17 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Liverpool form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Liverpool so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 3-2-6 (win-draw-lose).

199 minutes! That's how long the Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Ramses Becker and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, a Champions League home defeat versus Real Madrid with 2-5 on the scoreboard. Attacker Salah got a player rating of 8.45 in the game. "Man of the match" Salah scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 4 of 7 times and had 28 successful passes (of 32 total).

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Newcastle United.

Some information for sports bettors wanting to bet on only one (or no) team scoring in this game: This club have played 5 consecutive league games with just one or no team finding the net.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers in just four days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Liverpool have scored 13 goals in 11 league games away. Liverpool's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 19 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Liverpool have not lost in the last 12 fixtures (11-1-0) versus Crystal Palace.

Liverpool - Palace 1-1 was the story when this pair of sides previously did battle, some time ago this season.
