Liverpool take on the visitors Crystal Palace in the round 38 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, May 25th at Anfield, Liverpool.
Liverpool have certainly had some letdowns in 2025. Their Champions League exit was especially painful — a competition they’ve won multiple times, including in Paris, ended with a 0-1 loss in the return leg to PSG and heartbreak in a penalty shootout, courtesy of Donnarumma. One could debate what hurt more: being eliminated from the FA Cup by underdogs Plymouth, or losing the Carabao Cup final to Newcastle. But in the Premier League, Arne Slot grabbed top spot early and never looked back, securing the title with games to spare in April. Since then, Liverpool’s focus has shifted toward celebrating and saying farewell to players like Alexander-Arnold, rather than dominating on the pitch. The results reflect that — a 1-3 defeat to Chelsea, a blown two-goal lead against Arsenal, and most recently a loss to a motivated Brighton side. The champions are clearly winding down the season in low gear.

Crystal Palace, under Roy Hodgson, evolved into a sturdy mid-table Premier League side — but the club eventually desired more. Patrick Vieira's stint as successor didn’t pan out, but Oliver Glasner’s arrival mid-season last year sparked a revival, guiding Palace to a top-10 finish. Despite a rocky start to the new campaign, the Austrian tactician restored momentum and delivered impressive results. They recently dismantled Wolves 4-2 in the league. But the real magic happened in the FA Cup: Palace tore through five opponents, including dominant 3-0 wins over both Fulham and Aston Villa. Then came the final against heavy favourites Manchester City — and Eberechi Eze's early strike stood as the winner in a historic 1-0 victory, earning Palace their first major trophy ever.
Last season, both teams picked up away wins in this fixture. That trend continued earlier this year, with Salah and company stealing a 1-0 win in London. Liverpool are clear favourites on paper, but they’ve mentally checked out. Palace are riding high and playing with confidence — back the visitors with a +1.5 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Crystal Palace to win with +1.5 handicap.
