There are two kick-offs at 14:00 GMT on Sunday the 14th of April and one of these sees Liverpool take on Crystal Palace at Anfield. Liverpool, as you probably already know, are battling it out for the title, while Crystal Palace are not out of the relegation dogfight just yet. Both these Premier League teams are desperate for the three points for two completely different reasons, but will the points stay in the northeast, or head back to the capital? Let's dive into this prediction and find out what I think will end up going down.
🏆 Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: Who Will Win?
Liverpool had their destiny in their own hands heading into their match against Manchester United last weekend, knowing that they would be crowned Champions if they won their remaining matches. However, despite completely dominating the first half, they somehow ended up drawing 2-2, giving Arsenal the advantage due to their better goal difference. Liverpool can ill-afford another slip-up, especially against a lowly Crystal Palace team.
The Eagles have not won in their previous five matches, and this poor form has left them sitting in 14th place just five points above the Relegation Zone. For what it is worth, I do not think that they will go down as there are three worse teams than them, but it cannot exactly be fun being a Palace fan at the moment. They will hope to get three or four wins from their remaining matches to at least end the season on a bit of a high note.
However, I do not see one of those wins coming in this match as Liverpool will be eager to make up for the poor result against United at the weekend. I can see Liverpool winning this with a comfortable scoreline of 3-1.
My Prediction: 🏆Liverpool 3 Crystal Palace 1 ⚽
💯 Liverpool vs Crystal Palace Match Odds
These two teams last played on the 9th of December, and it was a close match that Liverpool went on to win 2-1. The Eagles had just 24% of the possession but they actually ended up having more shots on target than their opponents. The home side took the lead in the 57th minute via a Philippe Mateta penalty with Mohamad Salah equalising 20 minutes later - scoring his 200th goal for the club. Harvey Elliot then popped up to bang home the winner in injury time.
New UK betting sites and established ones that are serious about the industry that they are in will always have a variety of markets and competitive odds for the English Premier League as it is considered one of the best leagues in the world. Not all bookies have been created equally though, so below I have given you the odds that five quality bookies are offering for three popular markets in relation to this Liverpool vs Crystal Palace match.
🏅 Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: Match Winner Odds
Since there are 41 points between these two teams in the table, the bookmakers obviously have Liverpool as the overwhelming favourites to win. In fact, Liverpool's odds to win are so short that I would not even consider making a single bet on them to come out on top - I would think about adding them to an accumulator. However, before you go ahead and make any type of decision, have a look at the match winner odds below:
Team | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Liverpool | 1.18 | 1.18 | 1.22 | 1.19 | 1.19 |
Draw | 6.80 | 6.80 | 6.50 | 7.00 | 7.00 |
Crystal Palace | 11.40 | 11.40 | 12.00 | 14.00 | 14.00 |
⚽ Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: Both Teams To Score Odds
Most of the time in the EPL the bookmakers will favour both teams to score since goals are never in short supply in this entertaining league - at the time of writing, there have been 1013 goals scored in the 2023/24 EPL season. However, in this game, the bookies believe that it is unlikely that both teams will find the back of the net. As you know from my prediction, I think Palace will bag a consolation goal, giving us a value bet. Below are the odds for this BTTS market:
BTTS | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Yes | 1.93 | 1.93 | 1.85 | 1.86 | 1.93 |
No | 1.78 | 1.78 | 1.85 | 1.77 | 1.83 |
🥅 Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Odds
The bookmakers are quite adamant that there will be over 2.5 goals but under 3.5 goals scored in this game. These odds, alongside the match winner and BTTS odds, tell us that they believe that Liverpool could go on to win this match by a 3-0 scoreline. If you like trying your luck on this market, then check out the odds below - although they are a little short for my liking.
Over/Under 2.5 Goals | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Over 2.5 | 1.37 | 1.37 | 1.40 | 1.37 | 1.38 |
Under 2.5 | 2.84 | 2.84 | 2.90 | 2.80 | 2.85 |
✔️ Liverpool vs Crystal Palace - Betting Tips
Before putting any money down on this game, whether it is your own money or a free bet that you have at your disposal, check out my Liverpool vs Crystal Palace betting tips below. You never know, you might just find something that you like the look of.
- Tip 1: Bet on Liverpool to win: Jurgen Klopp's men have made Anfield into a fortress this season as they have won 13 and drawn 3 of the 16 matches that they have played there. Meanwhile, Palace have struggled away from home as they have only collected 14 of the 48 away points that have been on offer. The Eagles have also not beaten Liverpool since 2017, so form and history point towards a win for the home team. You can find odds of 1.22 at 10Bet Sport.
- Tip 2: Bet on BTTS: The bookmakers do not think that Palace will score, but I think that they have the attacking talent to find the back of the net. I mean, they did score two against Man City last weekend. Furthermore, both teams have scored in 69% of Liverpool's home games this season, while 63% of Palace's away games have seen the same outcome. Those who also think both teams will score can find odds of 1.93 at Mr Mega Sport.
- Tip 3: Bet on Mohamad Salah to score: The Egyptian has scored 17 goals in 25 appearances this season, and he will be relishing coming up a defence which has been conceding an average of 2.00 goals over the last ten rounds of matches. He missed a chunk of recent matches due to a hamstring injury, but since his return, he has scored against Brighton and Manchester United. I can see him causing Palace all sorts of issues, and LeoVegas are offering odds of 1.70 for him to score.
- Tip 4: Bet on Liverpool to win 3-1: Liverpool have the firepower to put three goals past their opponents, but they are finding clean sheets hard to come by in recent weeks. From their last ten games, they have managed just the one shutout. I think Palace have what it takes to score but it will only be a consolation goal. You can find odds of 9.30 at Betiton for this scoreline.
N.B. Always remember to gamble within your means. I suggest you set a budget with an amount that you can afford to potentially lose and stick to it.
1️⃣Liverpool Update
Liverpool are desperate to win the league to send Klopp off on a high, but I think that they will end up finishing just short of this aim. I think City are better equipped to deal with the pressure as they have done it countless times, while I think Arsenal are playing better football. Liverpool have had their fair share of luck this season, and I think it will run out in the coming weeks. Even if they win all of their remaining games, they could still end up losing the title on goal difference - the worst way to lose out.
Liverpool are third in the form guide as they have dropped seven points from the last 30 that have been available. This included a 3-1 defeat to Arsenal and the aforementioned 2-2 draw to United. You can see their previous five EPL results below:

---|---|
Joel Matip | Knee Injury |
Stefan Bajcetic | Unknown |
Diogo Jota | Knee Injury |
Trent Alexander-Arnold | Knee Injury |
Thiago Alcantara | Thigh Injury |
Ben Doak | Knee Injury |
2️⃣Crystal Palace Update
Palace only have one aim each season and that is to stay in the English Premier League. With 30 points on the board and a five-point cushion over the Relegation Zone, I would say that they need just two to three more wins to achieve their aim. The main reason for their struggles at times this season has been their lack of goals - they have scored 36 in 31 matches, which is the 4th lowest in the division.
When it comes to the form table, they are currently sitting in 15th place with nine points gained from their last ten matches - two wins, three draws, and five losses. They are averaging 1.40 goals in this time, which is an improvement on their season average of 1.16 per game. Below are their previous five EPL results:
