My Prediction
Liverpool by 2In this upcoming duel of English titans, we have Liverpool pitted against Crystal Palace.
On the goalkeeper front, Liverpool flaunts Alisson with a handsome rating of 7.28 and 20 saves under his belt. Palace, on the contrary, has Dean Henderson nursing their goal, carrying a lower but not too shabby rating of 6.80 and 8 saves this season.
Liverpool, no doubt have the upper hand when it comes to star power. With Cody Gakpo, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, who boasts ratings of 7.32, 7.37 and 7.23 respectively, they truly cast a formidable line up. Crystal Palace, however, aren’t lagging too far behind with Eberechi Eze being their star player this season, clocking a whopping 5 goals and flaunting a staggering 8.15 rating. They also have Ben Chilwell and Daniel Muñoz adding solid heft to their side.
Looking back in time, the previous four matches between these two clubs exhibit a tight competition, with no clear dominator. With two victories for Liverpool, a win for Palace, and a draw in their kitty, the past skirmishes have been undeniably evenly matched.
But if we jump into the recent season records, Liverpool seems to emerge dominant with 25 wins, 8 draws and 4 losses, whereas Crystal Palace has graphed a more balanced portrayal of 13 wins, 13 draws, and 11 losses.
The recent matches for both the teams disclose some interesting trend, Liverpool had a mixed bag with two wins, two defeats and a draw, whereas Crystal Palace remained undefeated in their last five matches with two wins and three draws.
Combine this data soup, and Liverpool does appear to have a slight edge here. Although Crystal Palace's recent form has been commendable, Liverpool's overall season record and superior player ratings may prove to be the pivotal point in their upcoming clash.
