The Premier League weekend action kicks off with a clash between Crystal Palace and Liverpool on Saturday lunchtime, with the latter sitting top of the table after six games played. They might not have been convincing this term, although the wins have still flowed and Arne Slot’s side are heavy favourites to land a victory.
Liverpool are likely to be a popular accumulator selection when it comes to them landing victory, with Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz both enjoying strong starts to the campaign, while Ryan Gravenberch has been the stand out player for the Merseyside outfit. Interestingly, the Reds have only conceded one goal on the road this term.
Palace have mustered just five goals in the space of six games and the London side desperately need a good result before the international break. They are big betting outsiders to get over the line here, with Michael Olise’s departure to Bayern Munich proving to be telling, with two draws and a defeat happening at home so far.
The bookies do think that Palace are likely to score, with the BTTS Yes option trading at odds-on and the London side will hope that Jean-Phillippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze can get amongst the goals against a defence which hasn’t always been watertight. However, we think that it could be a fairly comfortable win for Liverpool.
