Crystal Palace vs Liverpool – Match preview and team news

Crystal Palace face Liverpool in their Premier League gameweek 10 fixture on Sunday at Selhurst Park, as Pierre Sage’s men aim for a positive result in their final game before the international break. Crystal Palace vs Liverpool – Match preview and team news Date: Sunday, 8th November. Kick-off: 3pm BST. Venue: Selhurst Park. Crystal Palace team news Crystal Palace enter today’s Premier League fixture against Liverpool managing several notable attacking and defensive absences at Selhurst Park. Striker Jean-Philippe Mateta is ruled out as he begins a three-match domestic suspension following his red card against Tottenham last weekend. He is joined on the sidelines by injured trio Ismaïla Sarr (groin), Takehiro Tomiyasu (calf), and Chadi Riad (knee), with Sarr not expected to return until after the upcoming international break. On a more positive note, midfielder Adam Wharton is eligible to feature despite receiving a red card in Thursday’s Europa League draw against Hoffenheim, as that ban applies strictly to European competition. Manager Pierre Sage also confirmed that Jørgen Strand Larsen is building his match sharpness and is fit to play roughly 60 to 75 minutes, giving Palace options alongside Eddie Nketiah to lead the line in a projected 3-4-2-1 setup. Liverpool team news Liverpool travel to South London with no fresh injury setbacks reported from their midweek European action, according to manager Andoni Iraola. However, the Reds remain without several key squad members as Jeremie Frimpong continues to recover from a hamstring issue that has kept him out of the last five matches. Long-term absentees Hugo Ekitike (Achilles), Conor Bradley (knee), and Giovanni Leoni (ACL) also remain unavailable for selection. The main fitness concern ahead of kick-off is midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, who faces a late assessment on the heel injury that forced him to miss recent clashes against Arsenal and Fenerbahçe. Should Gravenberch fail to pass fit, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai are expected to anchor the midfield behind an attacking unit featuring Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo, Bradley Barcola, and Alexander Isak in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Form Crystal Palace Crystal Palace enter today’s clash struggling near the bottom of the Premier League table, sitting in the relegation zone with seven points from nine matches.
