Diogo Jota’s early strike has Liverpool in front at Selhurst Park
Liverpool have the chance to put some more pressure on their Premier League title rivals as they travel to face Crystal Palace in the lunchtime kick-off. Victory will move the Reds four points clear at the top of the table, at least until Arsenal and Manchester City play later this afternoon.
Arne Slot’s side have been in superb form and made it back-to-back wins in the Champions League in midweek as they eased past Bologna. Liverpool have a perfect record on the road under their new manager, winning all four matches while scoring ten times and conceding just once. Andy Robertson and Luis Diaz are among those to drop to the bench at Selhurst Park, as Slot makes four changes.
Palace, on the other hand, are still waiting for their first Premier League win of the season, with pressure starting to build on Oliver Glasner. There have been some positive signs, though, with draws against Chelsea and Manchester United, but the Eagles still find themselves in the relegation zone.

56 mins: Big save!
Brilliant ball over the top from Van Dijk, Salah brings it down and flicks an effort at goal. Can’t get a huge amount of power on it, but Henderson still does well to react.

55 mins: Szoboszlai, Salah, Alexander-Arnold...
Liverpool patient in the box, until the right-back finally drills it low across the face of goal. Henderson kicks it away to safety.
Visitors continue to push for that second goal their performance has deserved.

52 mins: Wharton strong in midfield, plays it out to Mitchell on the left.
Eze and Nketiah on the edge of the box, Mitchell off balance and instead sends the cross straight out of play for a goal-kick.

50 mins: Eze finally does get on the ball in the Liverpool half, but passes it straight to Jota.
Have to think Glasner must be considering bringing Mateta on, and having Eze behind him and Nketiah. Needs to try something, surely.

47 mins: Palace seem very keen to long at every opportunity.
Reminder that it is Nketiah playing up front, against Van Dijk and Konate...

Szoboszlai on for Mac Allister at the break.

It was pretty much their first attack.
Lovely ball from Tsimikas, Gakpo plays it into the middle and Jota runs onto it perfectly.

Well Palace are good for the first 22 seconds and the last 100 seconds of the half.
In between that... dreadful.
Liverpool so comfortable, utterly dominant and will be frustrated the scoreline doesn’t reflect that.

45+2 mins: I take it back - Palace have waited until added-time to start playing.
Ball fizzed through to Sarr, decent strike and Alisson gets down well to save. Nketiah blocked off from getting to the rebound.

45 mins: Two minutes added on.
If I had to guess, I’d say that’s about 120 seconds more than Palace want.
