In my opinion Liverpool is clear favorite of this match and they should win today.

Since 2013 when Crystal Palace returned to Premier League both teams played 15 matches against each other. Liverpool scored at least one goal in all of these matches, they recorded 9 wins in the process. Liverpool have great streak at this stadium - they won last 5 matches in a row at Selhurst Park and every time they scored more than one goal.

Crystal Palace today have one new absence - striker Christian Benteke is suspended. This is big blow for the team, he scored a goal in last round and looked very dangerous in last two games. Liverpool don't have any new absences and their squad should look exactly the same like in previous round.

I saw last two Crystal Palace matches against Tottenham and West Ham (twice 1:1) and they didn't impressed me at all. They looks poor at home in last months - only 2 wins in 10 matches. Their defense is very unstable as they conceded at least one goal in last 12 Premier League matches in a row.

On the other hand Liverpool scored at least one goal in last 19 Premier League matches in a row. They are unbeaten in last 9 rounds and coming here after big win 2:1 at home against former leader of the table Tottenham. Liverpool scored in 90', they should be full of confidence. They are at the top of the table and for sure they wants to go with momentum.

Liverpool offensive star Sadio Mane should be very dangerous today - he scored at least one goal in last 6 matches in a row against Crystal Palace. Liverpool striker Salah have excellent record in December matches - he scored 17 goals and made 9 assists in last 21 Premier League matches in December.

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson lost his last 6 matches against Liverpool. Under Jurgen Klopp Liverpool plays great on away in London - they went unbeaten in 24 of 27 matches (12 of last 13, 8 wins in the process). They have all tools to continue this streak today and grab 3 points at the end of the day.

我认为利物浦显然是这场比赛的热门，他们今天应该可以赢下比赛。

自2013年水晶宫重返英超联赛以来，两支球队之间进行了15场比赛。利物浦在所有这些比赛中均打入至少收获一个进球，在此过程中他们取得9场胜利。利物浦在水晶宫的主场表现出色-他们连续赢得了最近的5场比赛，并且每场比赛的进球都超过一个。

今天的水晶宫有一个新的缺席-前锋克里斯蒂安·本特克被停赛。对于球队来说，这是巨大的打击，他在上轮打进一球，在最近两场比赛中制造了很多威胁。利物浦没有任何新缺席，他们的阵容应该看起来像上一轮一样。 我看了水晶宫最近两场对阵热刺和西汉姆的比赛（两次1：1），他们的表现没打动我。在过去的几个月里，他们在主场看起来很糟糕-10场比赛只有2场胜利。他们的防守非常不稳定，因为他们在过去的12场比赛中都有失球。

另一方面，利物浦在过去的19场英超联赛中都取得了进球。他们在过去的9轮保持不败，并以2：1在主场战胜了对阵托特纳姆热刺。利物浦在90'分钟绝杀，他们应该充满信心。他们排在积分榜第一位，可以肯定的是，他们想保持这样势头。

利物浦进攻明星萨迪奥·马内（Sadio Mane）今天应该非常有威胁-他在对阵水晶宫的连续6场比赛中都至少打进了一个球。前锋萨拉赫（Salah）在12月份的比赛中表现出色-他在此前12月份的近21场英超联赛中攻入17球，并助攻9次。

水晶宫主帅罗伊·霍奇森（Roy Hodgson）在与利物浦的最近6场比赛中都输了球。在尤尔根·克洛普（Jurgen Klopp）的带领下，利物浦在伦敦的比赛表现出色-他们在27场比赛中有24场保持不败（在最后13场中有12场取得了胜利）。他们完全有能力在本场战胜水晶宫，预测利物浦胜。
