Crystal Palace have won just one of their last 16 Premier League meetings with Liverpool (D3 L12), winning 1-0 at Anfield in April 2024. The Eagles haven’t scored more than once in any of their last 12 league games against the Reds (6 goals).

Liverpool have won nine and lost none of their last 10 away league games against Crystal Palace (D1) – this is their longest ongoing unbeaten run away from home in the league against any side.

This match will see the Premier League’s only two unbeaten sides so far this season facing, with Liverpool winning all five of their matches and Crystal Palace winning two and drawing three so far. Three of the last four occasions two unbeaten sides have met this late into a season has seen the match end in a draw, with the exception Spurs’ 2-1 win over Liverpool in September 2023.

Crystal Palace are unbeaten in their opening five matches of a top-flight season for the first time since 1990-91 (opening 10) when they went on to finish 3rd, their best ever finish in the top-flight.

Liverpool are looking to win their opening six top-flight matches in a season for a fifth time – they previously did so in 1978-79 (six), 1990-91 (eight), 2018-19 (six) and 2019-20 (eight). Only two reigning Premier League champions have started with six wins – Chelsea in 2005-06 and Man City in 2023-24, both of whom retained their title.

Crystal Palace are unbeaten in 11 Premier League matches (W4 D7), the longest ongoing run of any side. Palace are looking to go 12 top-flight games unbeaten for just the second time, previously managing that feat between May and October 1990 under Steve Coppell.

So far this season, Crystal Palace have made the fewest high turnovers (19) of any side and have the fewest high-intensity pressures in the final third of the pitch (304). Their direct speed, however, is the second highest of any side (2.02 metres/second), showing their ability to move upfield quickly.

Liverpool’s Ryan Gravenberch has scored two goals in his last four Premier League appearances, more than he managed in his first 63 games (1). He is averaging 1.8 shots per 90 minutes in 2025-26, having only averaged 0.6 per 90 last season.

Jean-Philippe Mateta has scored 29 goals in 55 Premier League appearances for Crystal Palace under Oliver Glasner – in Glasner’s top-flight managerial career across the Austrian Bundesliga, German Bundesliga and Premier League, only Wout Weghorst (36 goals in 66 games) has scored more under him, while Mateta’s 143 minutes per goal ratio is the best of any player with 1,000+ minutes under Glasner.

Since the start of last season, Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah has been involved in 51 Premier League goals (31 goals, 20 assists), 20 more than any other player. He has 274 goal involvements for the Reds (186 goals, 88 assists), just two shy of the record for a single club – Wayne Rooney for Manchester United (183 goals, 93 assists).
