England : Premier League - Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

Anfield Set for a Proper Trophy Lift 🏆

Liverpool return home to lift the Premier League trophy in front of a full Anfield – a moment denied to them during the COVID-19 title-winning season. This emotional finale is expected to bring out a focused and fired-up Reds squad. While recent performances have been underwhelming – including losses to Chelsea and Brighton – the importance of Sunday’s game cannot be overstated. Key players like Van Dijk, Luis Díaz, and Diogo Jota were rested in midweek and should return fresh to the starting XI.

Mac Allister is ruled out with a minor injury, but motivation levels are high across the squad. One man to watch is Mohamed Salah, who is chasing history – he sits at 46 goal contributions and needs two more to break his own Premier League record (47). He’s been playing full matches consistently and will likely be at the heart of Liverpool’s attacking play again.

Palace Already on Holiday Mode 🏖️

Crystal Palace are still riding high after a historic FA Cup final win over Manchester City – their first major trophy. But with the final played just last weekend and a midweek clash with Wolves as a send-off at Selhurst Park, they head to Anfield with nothing left to play for. The intensity is bound to drop, especially as an away team in a final round match. Manager Oliver Glasner has rotated his squad heavily in recent weeks, and fringe players may once again feature with the summer break looming.

It’s hard to see Palace matching Liverpool’s tempo or motivation in this fixture. Anfield will be buzzing, players are chasing individual and collective milestones, and Klopp’s men will want to end the season with a strong statement.
