Crystal Palace v Liverpool: match preview

Crystal Palace v Liverpool
Crystal Palace v Liverpool: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Liverpool’s ascent to the upper echelons of the Premier League table has seen them go seven games unbeaten and score 16 goals in the process but their trip to SE25 may not be so straightforward. Palace have a strong record against them at Selhurst Park despite defeat last season and have won four of the last seven league matches there. But Alan Pardew will be hoping Jason Puncheon is fit to play – Palace have yet to win a league match without him since he signed in 2013. Ed Aarons
