Liverpool have taken ten points from a possible 12 on the road in the league
No team in the top flight has a worse defensive record than Crystal Palace’s 21 goals conceded
Liverpool’s back-to-back defeats against Arsenal and Fenerbahce have detracted from what had been a solid start to life under Andoni Iraola but they will not get many better opportunities to get back on track than visiting Crystal Palace.
The Eagles are 18th in the table after losing three on the bounce in the league and recording just one win in their last seven games.

Team News
Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta is suspended after being sent off against Tottenham but Adam Wharton’s European red card does not influence his selection in this game.
Chadi Riad, Ismaila Sarr and Takehiro Tomiyasu are expected to be out until after the international break.
Jeremie Frimpong, Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni and Hugo Eiktike are all long-term absentees for the visitors while Ryan Gravenberch is struggling with a small fracture in his heel and could be rested until after the international break.
Need to know
Pierre Sage only took over from Oliver Glasner this summer but he has had a tough start to life as Crystal Palace manager and the pressure is mounting on him.
With an international break looming, the Frenchman needs a result in this game. He is 2/1 with LiveScore Bet to be the next manager to depart, second-favourite behind Michael Carrick.
Prediction
Crystal Palace’s defensive issues have shown little sign of getting any better and they may be their undoing once more when they host Liverpool.
The Reds may have lost two games on the bounce but this is a significantly easier task than those two and Iraola’s men are fancied to win.
Palace wing-back Anan Khalaili is no stranger to getting stuck in, he leads the league with 29 tackles, but he can overstep the mark and has been booked twice already. Side with the 22-year-old to pick up another caution.
Cody Gakpo has six assists and three goals this season and is likely to start after playing just 25 minutes against Fenerbahce in midweek. Against the leakiest defence in the league, the Dutchman is fancied to add to his attacking output.
