Liverpool will hope to set the pace early on in what looks set to be the most fascinating Premier League title race in years.

The Reds welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield knowing that a victory would ramp up the pressure on Manchester United, Chelsea and Everton who are all locked on 10 points alongside Jurgen Klopp's men, while Man City sit just one point below.

Klopp will expect professional displays from his team against sides they're expected to beat. Liverpool have already started well on that front with wins over Norwich, Burnley and Leeds so far with a cushion of at least two goals and without conceding.

Crystal Palace will head to Merseyside in buoyant spirits though having started the season in excellent form under Patrick Vieira.

The Eagles defeated 10-man Tottenham 3-0 last weekend as new boy Odsonne Edouard enjoyed a dream debut with two goals despite only coming off the bench in the 84th minute.

Our prediction: Liverpool v Crystal Palace

Many would have worried about Crystal Palace before the season but they're turning out to be real dark horses in the 2021/22 campaign.

They've proven their capabilities at both ends of the pitch so far and Vieira appears to be building on Roy Hodgson's firm foundations.

Going to Anfield is never a pleasant experience for any away team, but don't expect a walkover victory. Liverpool should come out on top in the end, but Palace could give them a scare.

Our prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Crystal Palace (9/1 at bet365).
