Join us for the live broadcast of this EFL Cup Round of 16 match, as Liverpool hosts Crystal Palace at the legendary Anfield. This is a clash between two Premier League teams where the hosts, despite expected squad rotation, are considered the clear favorites.
Kick-off: October 29, 2025, 19:45 UTC (22:45 MSK)Stadium: Anfield, Liverpool
Competition: English League Cup, Round of 16
Liverpool vs Crystal Palace: Match Preview
Liverpool comes into this match looking to build on their recent European victory, which broke a losing streak in the league. For Arne Slot's team, the League Cup is a good opportunity to regain confidence and give playing time to squad players. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, has slowed down after an impressive start to the season but remains a very dangerous opponent with a potent attacking line. The head-to-head history is entirely in favor of the Merseyside club: Liverpool has won the last 13 consecutive encounters against Palace in all competitions.
Team Form and Analysis
Liverpool
Arne Slot is expected to make extensive changes to his lineup. Caoimhín Kelleher is likely to start in goal, while young players and those who don't feature regularly in the Premier League, such as Harvey Elliott, Curtis Jones, and Cody Gakpo, will get a chance to shine. Despite the changes, the Anfield factor and the high quality of the backup players make Liverpool the favorites.
Crystal Palace
Oliver Glasner's team comfortably defeated Fulham in the previous cup round. The Eagles possess a very creative attacking group with Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, and Jean-Philippe Mateta, who are capable of causing problems for any defense. The visitors will also likely rotate their squad slightly, but their lineup will be closer to full strength, as the cup competition is an important goal for Palace.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Official lineups will be confirmed one hour before kick-off.
- Liverpool (4-3-3): Kelleher; Bradley, Quansah, Gomez, Tsimikas; Elliott, McConnell, Jones; Doak, Gakpo, Diogo Jota.
- Crystal Palace (3-4-3): Henderson; Ward, Tomkins, Richards; Muñoz, Hughes, Lerma, Mitchell; Olise, Eze, Mateta.
Match Prediction by tutsport.net
Despite the expected rotation, Liverpool at Anfield is too strong. Their total dominance in head-to-head meetings and squad depth should see them through to the next round. However, Palace's attack is unlikely to leave the field without a goal.
- Main Prediction: Liverpool to Win. The Merseysiders should extend their impressive winning streak in matches against the Eagles.
- Total Goals Prediction: Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals. Liverpool almost always scores at home, and Palace's creative attack is capable of breaching even a rotated home defense.
