That latter win ended Liverpool’s 100 per cent start to the campaign in competitive action and prompted an alarming spiral that has seen them lose five of their last six matches across all competitions, including four in a row in the top-flight to leave the defending champions sitting seventh and seven points adrift of leaders Arsenal already.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace prediction
Just how much longer can this Liverpool malaise continue?
Palace have been a real bogey team for Liverpool in recent years and they will be relishing the chance to pile more misery on a Reds side over whom they will feel they have a psychological edge after beating them twice already this season.
However, Oliver Glasner’s men aren’t in their best moment either, winless in four having drawn successive blanks.
