Liverpool seeking to end a run of four games without a win against Crystal Palace

Liverpool will aim to take another big step towards Champions League qualification when they face Crystal Palace this weekend.

Liverpool have won their last two Premier League matches - bouncing back from defeat to Brighton before the March international break - to tighten their grip on fifth place.

A third win on the bounce could open up an eight-point gap to sixth-place with four games remaining, though the Reds will have eyes on finishing as high as possible with both Manchester United and Aston Villa in striking distance.

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace’s attentions may be elsewhere with a Conference League semi-final first leg against Shakhtar Donetsk on the horizon.

Oliver Glasner’s side are all-but guaranteed to avoid relegation and have an outside chance of Champions League football - though that depends on how Villa fare in the Europa League.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off on Saturday, April 25, 2026.

The match will take place at Anfield.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace team news

Joe Gomez, Alisson Becker and Wataru Endo were all spotted in Liverpool training on Thursday, though it’s likely the Palace game comes too soon for the latter pair to return from injury.

However, Gomez could be in contention after being rested against Everton. The versatile defender is an option at right-back, but Slot could opt for Jeremie Frimpong with the Reds likely to dominate possession.

Glasner has said he expects to have Adam Wharton back after the midfielder missed the goalless draw against West Ham through injury.

Eddie Nketiah will not feature having been ruled out for the remainder of the season, while Evan Guessand and Cheick Doucoure are expected to miss out too.

Boost: Joe Gomez

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace prediction

This is a tough one to call as Crystal Palace are unbeaten against Liverpool this season and they’ve played each other three times in all competitions.

That run stretches to four when including the meeting on the final day of last season, but both teams are at very different stages of their respective campaigns.

Liverpool need a win to keep the pressure on Man United and Villa, while Palace’s focus, understandably, is the Conference League semi-final. For those reasons, we expect the hosts to finally record a win over the Eagles.

Liverpool to win, 2-1.

Head to head (h2h) history and results

Crystal Palace won the reverse meeting 2-1 earlier in the season thanks to a 97th-minute goal from Nketiah and have not lost at Anfield since September 2021 - winning there in the Carabao Cup back in October.
