Crystal Palace put their unbeaten Premier League run on the line at Selhurst Park as they welcome the perfect league leaders, Liverpool.
Palace have stretched their streak to 11 games with a 2-1 win at West Ham. Oliver Glasner’s side boasts the joint-best defensive record in the league, conceding just twice this season, and arrives with real momentum after lifting the FA Cup last term and the Community Shield against Liverpool in August. With their first-ever Conference League campaign also looming, they look exciting.
Liverpool, meanwhile, make the trip with five points clear at the top after one-upping Everton in the derby and Southampton in the EFL Cup. Arne Slot’s men have yet to hit top gear fully, but seven straight wins in all competitions underline their efficiency.
The Reds have dominated past trips to Selhurst Park with nine wins from their last 10 visits, yet Palace’s recent steel means this could be their sternest test of the campaign so far.

Crystal Palace vs. Liverpool lineups, team news
Crystal Palace have about seven players out with injuries, while some of their availabilities against Liverpool remain uncertain.
Yeremy Pino Santos picked up a knee injury last weekend, with reports suggesting that the winger has been back in training and could return to action on Saturday. Ismaila Sarr, meanwhile, is in contention to return after suffering a thigh injury.
The Eagles also have Chadi Riad Dnanou, Cheick Doucoure, Walter Benitez, Odsonne Edouard, and Caleb Kporha missing in action due to their respective injuries.
Palace head coach Oliver Glasner is expected to bring on a strong front against Liverpool in order to maintain their undefeated streak in the top flight.
Crystal Palace predicted starting XI (3-4-3, right to left): Henderson (GK) — Richards, Lacroix, Guehi — Munoz, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell — Pino, Kamada, Mateta
Injured: Doucoure (knee), Riad (knee), Benitez (finger), Edouard (Achilles), Kporha (back), Yeremy Pino (knee, doubt), Sarr (thigh, doubt)
Suspended: None
Liverpool have a limited list of absentees. Hugo Ekitike is serving a one-match suspension after receiving a red card in the Carabao Cup win against Southampton. His red-hot form will be missed, and that outing left Giovanni Leoni sidelined for the remainder of the season after an ACL tear.
The Reds head coach, Arne Slot, is expected to hand Alexander Isak his first Premier League start for the Merseyside club, especially with Ekitike missing in action.
Liverpool will be hoping to extend their winning streak to six matches on Saturday, increasing the points gap with second-place Arsenal in the Premier League table.
Liverpool predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Alisson (GK) — Bradley, Van Dijk, Konate, Robertson — Gravenberch, Mac Allister — Gakpo, Szoboszlai, Salah — Isak
Injured: Kovacic (Achilles), Cherki (thigh), Marmoush (knee), Ait-Nouri (ankle), Khusanov (foot)
Suspended: Ekitike (Red Card)
