MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL; CPFC VS LFC

in #football6 years ago

Crystal Palace
After defeating their opponent (Fulham) who were just promoted to the EPL this season, 0-2 away from home (craven cottage), and having a terrible start last season themselves (their worst in history) but bounced back when they brought in Roy Hodgson. Crystal Palace will face a tough test in the resurgent Liverpool side who are tipped to be champions come May, 2019. They kept a clean sheet, which is good for their morale before facing a stiffer opposition in Liverpool.

Liverpool
Known for their high pressing football, Liverpool defeated West Ham convincingly on match day one and also kept a clean sheet. Liverpool have been very busy in the transfer window, adding great quality to their already talented squad, adding quality players to the department they lacked last season, maybe this is the season they have been waiting for, who knows?

Players to watch
After putting pen to paper, Wilfred Zaha committed his future to Crystal Palace (though lots of clubs are still after his signature). He's been a torn in the flesh for defenders, the Ivory Coast international scored and provided an assist in their 0-2 winner against Fulham, will he continue his fine form against Liverpool? It's a very big question that we have to wait and see.

Salah, after winning the PFA player in his debut season, he's also carried his fine form of last season to this season, he opened his scoring account in their first game of the season against West Ham, and he's really looking forward to continuing in his fine form he brought from last season.
Other players include, Bentake, Mane, Firminho, Townsend etc.

Head to Head:
Liverpool have won four of their last five EPL fixtures against Crystal Palace leaving Crystal Palace with only one win, this simply shows that the game might not end in a draw.
Both teams have scored in the last seven fixtures at Selhurst Park, I don't see this fixture to be different.

Possible Line Up
Long term injury to Oxlade-Chamberlain will definitely keep him out and Dann to is definitely out. Players like Ayew, Loveren, Matip and Meyer are likely to be included in the team.

Both teams should keep to their Winning squad from last week, as no new injuries really occurred, plus no manager will change a winning team.
