Preview
Liverpool head into this after a 4-0 loss to rivals, Manchester United in their previous clash on Tuesday.
Sancho, Fred, Martial and Pellestri scored for the Red Devils to inflict an opening pre-season loss on Liverpool.
The Red did not play their strongest 11 and rotated their squad after every 30 minutes to ensure game time. This was a test where it was more about gaining time rather than results.
However, Liverpool looks to gather momentum post that defeat and get back the winning mentality required as they want to head into the EPL with same confidence as they had during the 2021-22 season.
On the other hand, Crystal Palace beat Millwall 5-4 in an absolute thriller on Saturday in their previous pre-season clash.
In this goal-fest; Eze, Ayew, O’Brien, Benteke and Rak-Sakyi found the net for Crystal Palace while Afobe (2), Cresswell and Flemming scored for Millwall.
This was Palace’s first win of pre-season after the 1-1 draw against Accrington; which gives them the confidence to continue the winning momentum.
However, the defence will be tested once again after the 4 goals leaked in the previous clash and Vieira hopes to see improvement in that aspect.
Both teams last met in the EPL in January, 2022 where Liverpool won 3-1 away at Selhurst Park.

Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Crystal Palace
Liverpool has had the better of Palace on a number of occasions and despite the defeat on Tuesday, we see Liverpool continuing their impressive H2H on Palace.
The Reds should gain a comfortable win as they will be fielding an almost perfect 11 to get their pre-season up and running.
