Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson (left) has misplaced all four of his previous matches against Liverpool supervisor Jurgen Klopp, with the Reds scoring at the least twice on every occasion.

TEAM NEWS

Liverpool are weighing up whether to rob Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, with Jurgen Klopp confirming both are accessible after damage.

James Milner and Joel Matip picked up injures in Sunday’s plot at Everton and had been ruled out.

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson would possibly perhaps opt to rotate his squad and Andros Townsend and James McCarthy are among these pushing for recollects.

Jeffrey Schlupp, Martin Kelly and James Tomkins remain on the sidelines.

LAWRO’S PREDICTION

Palace had been spectacular in Saturday’s beget over Bournemouth and they now beget four wins in a row – and four tidy sheets too.

That shows why that is also so laborious for Liverpool to destroy them down, however I deem the Reds will tackle it, even within the occasion that they are still looking out their odd depth.

Liverpool huffed and puffed against Everton, and we observed about a issues that we suspected already. Takumi Minamino is a work in development, the Reds omit Andy Robertson at left-befriend, and they would possibly perhaps perhaps be looking out a spark in assault when Mohamed Salah is absent.

Salah will play on this sport although, and that’s one amongst the causes I deem Liverpool will beget. I am awaiting to seek for at the least one other 25% from the Reds, and even within the occasion that they produce not play nicely, I produce not gaze Palace scoring.

Prediction: 2-0
