Preview: Liverpool vs Crystal Palace prediction, odds, where to watch, time | Premier League 2025-26

The Eagles dominated the proceedings when these clubs last met.

Liverpool FC are all set to lock horns with Crystal Palace for their matchweek 34 fixture of the 2025-26 Premier League. This is going to be an entertaining outing, which is scheduled to take place at Anfield.

The Reds secured a 2-1 win in their Merseyside derby against Everton after scoring a goal in the final moments of the game. It was a decent performance by them. The Arne Slot-led side will be looking to build their momentum further, but the upcoming contest is not going to be an easy one for them.

Liverpool FC will be at home for their next matchup and will be keen to use it to their advantage. They are currently in fifth place on the league table and are likely to secure the UEFA Champions League spot for next season. The Reds must not drop points here.

The Eagles have performed decently in their last few matches. They are coming in after holding West Ham United to a goalless draw in their last outing. Oliver Glasner’s men need to do hard work in their upcoming fixture if they want to secure three points.

Crystal Palace will be away from home for their next EPL clash, but they will bring a tough challenge for the hosts. With 11 wins in 32 matches, the Eagles are placed 13th on the Premier League points table.
