Despite the odds being in Liverpool's favor, Palace has been dealt another blow ahead of the match. Striker Eddie Nketiah will miss the game due to a thigh injury, which is a significant loss for the team's attack.

Nketiah suffered the injury during a pre-season defeat to Augsburg, and manager Oliver Glasner has been focusing on the club's appeal against UEFA's Europa League verdict rather than Sunday's fixture. The England international is expected to be sidelined for up to six weeks, which could see him miss several games, including matches against Chelsea and Nottingham Forest, as well as Palace's European fixtures.

Meanwhile, Liverpool will be without Joe Gomez, who picked up a knock, and potentially captain Virgil van Dijk, who has been unwell in recent days.
