Crystal Palace FC at Liverpool FC 5/23/21 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Liverpool have done their duty in these final matches of the season and now hold their fate in their own hands. They need a win in their last match against Crystal Palace in order to seal the 4th spot. Of course they can remain at the 4th spot without winning, but they are still dependent on other results.

Liverpool (19-9-9) did a great job in their away match against Burnley last week, beating them by 3-0. It was not a very solid match, but Liverpool did the most out of their shots, scoring 3 goals in 3 shots for a crucial win. They have now won 4 in a row and managed to climb to the 4th spot of the EPL with 66 points, as many as Leicester below them, while both teams are 1 point behind Chelsea. Liverpool have a 9-6-3 record at home this season, where they are undefeated in their last 5 (3-0-2) but prior to that they have 6 consecutive losses.

Crystal Palace (12-17-8) are coming off a very frustrating loss at home against Arsenal. The Gunners took the lead at the 35th minute but Crystal Palace pulled even at the 62nd minute and it all looked like a draw. But Arsenal scored two goals in the stoppage time to eventually win by 3-1. Palace have been in rather poor form to finish the season, winning just 2 of their last 8 matches (2-5-1). However, they scored in 7 of those 8 matches. Crystal Palace have not been anything special on the road this season (6-9-3), scoring 21 and conceding 32 goals.
