Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: 3 Key Player Battles

Liverpool and Crystal palace have had some of the most exciting games in the past. The level of unpredictability is very high in these fixtures. Liverpool will certainly be looking to capitalize on their recent form as they travel to Selhurst Park on the back of a fantastic 3-0 win against Manchester City at Anfield. However, this visit will not be an easy one as palace have time and again proved to be a very tough opponent for the reds. The Reds had lost the return fixture at Anfield and it was one of the worst performances as per the manager. Here is a look at the three interesting battles that could be seen on the pitch on Sunday.

Jurgen Klopp is likely to play Alberto Moreno for this one to give Flanagan some rest before the big game against United. The battle between Yannick Bolasie and Moreno will certainly be one to look out for. The Palace winger is famous for making those runs on the flanks and will definitely give a tough time. Alberto Moreno will need to step his game up and mark Bolasie prominently throughout the game so as to keep the winger away from the six-yard box.
