Match Preview
For Liverpool, this EFL Cup fixture provides an opportunity for rotation and redemption. Manager Jürgen Klopp may give minutes to younger players like Ben Doak and Conor Bradley, while key veterans such as Darwin Núñez and Dominik Szoboszlai could provide the attacking spark.
Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner faces a test of squad depth, with the visitors needing defensive discipline to contain Liverpool’s attack. Palace will rely on Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta to create scoring opportunities on the counter.
Expect Liverpool to dominate possession at Anfield, but Palace’s pace on the break could make for an open, entertaining cup tie.
