Liverpool are set to play Crystal Palace at Anfield on Saturday in the English Premier League.
Liverpool come into this game on the back of a 3-2 win over Stefano Pioli's AC Milan in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League yesterday. An own goal from centre-back Fikayo Tomori and second-half goals from Egyptian attacker Mohamed Salah and midfielder Jordan Henderson sealed the deal for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool.
First-half goals from Croatian attacker Ante Rebic and Spanish forward Brahim Diaz proved to be a mere consolation for AC Milan.
Crystal Palace, on the other hand, beat Nuno Espirito Santo's Tottenham Hotspur 3-0 in the league. A penalty from Ivory Coast international Wilfried Zaha and a second-half brace from French striker Odsonne Edouard ensured victory for Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace. Tottenham Hotspur had centre-back Japhet Tanganga sent off in the second-half.
