Liverpool preview: Still under pressure
Liverpool come into this one on the back of a hard-fought 2-1 defeat of Everton in the Merseyside Derby with a last-gasp Virgil van Dijk winner in a game whereby the Toffees had the better of it.
Arne Slot remains under pressure for his job but, after all the mitigating circumstances for this season's regression, the Reds do have an excellent chance of securing UEFA Champions League qualification.
Crystal Palace preview: Lots to play for
They now face a Crystal Palace side that can be forgiven for being distracted as they prepare for their UEFA Europa Conference League semi-final against Shakhtar Donetsk in midweek.
The Eagles didn't show too much of that distraction with a decent performance as they were held to a goalless draw by relegation-battling West Ham United at Selhurst Park last weekend.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace prediction
If Aston Villa win the UEFA Europa League then sixth will be enough for UEFA Champions League football and so Palace sit just seven points outside of the top six ahead of the weekend. Liverpool have been beaten by Palace in the Community Shield, the EFL Cup and in the league this season so the visitors will fancy themselves to punish a leaky home defence - but Liverpool have to remain favourites at Anfield.
