Overview
The last time these two teams faced each other at Selhurst Park saw Brendan Rodgers' side leave disappointed after settling for a draw. Liverpool were leading 3-0 after 55 minutes and gave away their three-goal lead as the Eagles came from behind to score three goals in May.
The draw saw the Merseyside club finish second in the league table last season, losing the title to Manchester City on goal difference. The former Swansea manager would be hoping his side could manage a victory when they visit the capital on Sunday.
Palace have not been enjoying a great run in recent times as they are without a win in the last five matches. Meanwhile, Liverpool have managed only one win in the last five matches played in all competitions.
Liverpool face Ludogorets in the Champions League clash next midweek and a victory over Neil Warnock will see them end their three-match win-less run. The Reds will still be without the services of their star striker Daniel Sturridge, who picked up another injury earlier this week.
What Managers Say
Neil Warnock: "I think Balotelli's a fantastic player but Rickie Lambert's just as good, I think they've got different qualities don't they. Whoever's on the teamsheet is going to be hard for our lads at the back but I want us to cause them problems and not worry too much. Yeah, we'll have to read the teamsheet but we won't go too much into it."
Brendan Rodgers: "Is this my biggest test? Yes, absolutely, there's no getting away from that. I don't like to whine or complain or make excuses. We've had the whole integration of a lot of new players and obviously it's not gone as well as we would have wanted, there's no doubt about that."
