Liverpool will be playing their final game of a brilliant 2024\/25 Premier League season when they host Crystal Palace at Anfield on Sunday afternoon. The Reds will be receiving the Premier League trophy after the end of the match, as there will be a party and celebratory mood around the stadium throughout the outing. Arne Slot, however, will be focused on ensuring that his side put their best foot forward and does not treat this like a friendly game. He’ll want them to be at their efficient best to defeat the reigning FA Cup champions and end their campaign on a high note. Here is the Liverpool predicted lineup for the upcoming game.<\/p>\n

Liverpool Predicted Lineup vs Crystal Palace for 2024\/25 Premier League Clash<\/h2>\n

How Liverpool Have Lined up Recently<\/h3>\n

Arne Slot has been quite generous with giving playing time to the bench players ever since his side sealed the Premier League. However, Alisson remains the undisputed number one guarding the Liverpool goal ahead of Giorgi Mamardashvili’s imminent arrival. Virgil van Dijk should get back in the starting XI after being rested in the last game against Brighton, while Ibrahima Konate keeps his place. Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas keep fighting for the left-back role, while the outgoing Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a> will have to fight to get a place ahead of Conor Bradley in his final Liverpool match.<\/p>\n

In the midfield, Ryan Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai remain reliable figures, while Curtis Jones keeps competing for the midfield role too. Mohamed Salah, who seems set to win the Premier League Golden Boot, remains a mainstay along with Cody Gakpo in the wide areas. Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota, and Federico Chiesa will fight for the place up front, with the Colombian likely to get the nod.<\/p>\n

Liverpool Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n

Liverpool’s form has significantly dipped over the last few weeks since they clinched the Premier League championship. They are on a three-game winless run, having suffered defeats to Brighton & Hove Albion and Chelsea in recent away games. They were also held to a 2-2 draw by Arsenal at Anfield in their last home game, despite having a 2-0 lead at one point of the match. Slot will be eager for his side to end this barren run and finish their campaign with a big win.<\/p>\n

The Dutch coach has not made any changes to his style or the way he wants his players to approach their matches since they won the championship. He has stuck with his trusted 4-2-3-1 formation, urging them to create chances through the wide areas and pushing his side forward on speedy counter-attacks to torment defenders. His playing style gives enough freedom to the like of Salah and Gakpo to focus more on their attacking contributions than dropping back to defend.<\/p>\n

However, some silly errors and lapses in concentration in Liverpool’s recent games have caused their setbacks. Slot will be eager to ensure that his side aren’t so error-prone against Crystal Palace and produce an efficient, error-free performance to get a big win over the Eagles.<\/p>\n

Liverpool Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n

Alexis Mac Allister is the only injury<\/a> absentee for Slot’s side right now. He sustained a groin injury recently and will miss the Crystal Palace game, with the midfielder eyeing a return to action in time for the start of the 2025 pre-season campaign.<\/p>\n
