Liverpool return to Anfield knowing they cannot afford to slip up in their push for a top-four finish. With Champions League qualification on the line, this match against Crystal Palace is a vital opportunity to keep their European ambitions on track.
Manager Arne Slot’s Liverpool will arrive back at home following a successful trip across Merseyside, in which they defeated Everton 2-1, last weekend.
It was the second of back-to-back Premier League wins, following a run of three league matches without a win.
The Reds are currently five points clear of sixth-placed Brighton, as they prepare to face a Crystal Palace side who have improved in recent weeks.
Though manager Oliver Glasner will depart the club at the end of the season, he may yet leave South London with a parting gift in the shape of European football.
The Eagles are only six points adrift of seventh-placed Bournemouth, and they have a game in hand on all of their rivals around them.
Palace will arrive on Merseyside looking to make it five consecutive unbeaten Premier League matches.

What are the best bets for Liverpool vs Crystal Palace?
The sight of a rejuvenated Crystal Palace probably isn’t what Liverpool want to see right now, as they push to qualify for the Champions League.
Crystal Palace are very-much a bogey team for Liverpool, as they have avoided defeat against the Reds in five of their last six meetings.
Only two of the last nine head-to-head matches between these two sides have gone in Liverpool’s favour, and neither of them were at Anfield.
My tentative selection is to back the draw and over 2.5 goals in the game.
