    Jurgen Klopp reaches a milestone today.

    It is his 100th Premier League game in charge.

    His record after 99 games is W53 D28 L18.

    Klopp's side have scored 322 goals in that time. Only Manuel Pellegrini's first 100 games in the competition saw more (329).

    Crystal Palace will be tricky opponents because their tails will be up after winning at Huddersfield in their last game. They also have a few big players coming back. They look like a different outfit and Roy Hodgson is an experienced manager. Having said that, Liverpool are massive favourites.

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp speaking to Sky Sports: "Wilfried Zaha is a big player for them of course. All the results they had against the other teams at the top of the table - they were always hard work. So we need to be ready to get something.

    "We need to be fully focused on defending because of their strengths. That line-up is not one that should be fighting for the league. It's crazy. Chrstian Benteke, Zaha and Andros Townsend - it's a strong, strong team."

  7. 'Embarrassing and horrendous'published at 11:25 British Summer Time 31 March 2018

    West Ham v Southampton (15:00 BST)

    Charlie Adam
    Stoke City midfielder on BBC Radio 5 live

    I was at Wigan when West Ham played there in the FA Cup this season. If I was a West Ham supporter I would have been embarrassed at what some were shouting at an old man who has put a lot of money in (David Gold).

    It was horrendous what I saw and heard.

    It's important sometimes supporters remember what they are trying to do for the club.

    When a fan comes on the pitch you don’t know if they are going to attack you. If I was a player there I would have been losing my head on the pitch.

    West Ham v Southampton (15:00 BST)

    John Motson
    Match of the Day commentator at London Stadium

    West Ham have had three weeks to deal with the fall-out from their home defeat by Burnley, which was overshadowed by pitch invasions and protests in front of the directors' box.

    There will be a bigger police presence but amid the backdrop of security concerns it should not be forgotten that this is a huge game for West Ham, who would drop below Saints - and probably into the relegation zone - if they lose.

    Five of the Hammers' remaining eight matches are at the London Stadium, but that won't prove much of an advantage if the atmosphere remains toxic.

    Southampton made a winning start under Mark Hughes by beating Wigan the FA Cup, but this will be his first league match, and their record of one win in 17 top-flight games means that Premier League survival - rather than cup success - is his immediate priority.

    Burnley, Leicester and Everton are battling for seventh place - which will bring a place in the Europa League if Southampton do not win the FA Cup.

  10. Europe for Burnley?published at 11:11 British Summer Time 31 March 2018

    West Brom v Burnley (15:00 BST)

    Burnley in the Europa League?

    Yep, it's no longer a pipe dream but a distinct possibility.

    If the FA Cup is won by a team in the top six (and three of the four semi-finalists currently occupy top-six spots), the seventh-placed team will enter the Europa League.

    That's because FA Cup runners-up are no longer eligible to enter Europe by virtue of being losing finalists.

    The team currently occupying seventh spot with eight games to go? That will be Sean Dyche's Clarets.

    On battle to stay up

    Harry Redknapp
    Ex-West Ham manager on BBC Radio 5 live

    There's not a chance of Bournemouth going down. They'll finish half way.

    West Brom need a miracle. Huddersfield, Southampton, Crystal Palace, West Ham, Swansea and Stoke...it's so tight. There's some vital games to come. Brighton probably need another result.

    You don't envy any of them. It's nerve-wracking. It certainly carries a health warning.

    There's some huge matches near the bottom of the table.

    Southampton can climb out of the relegation zone with victory at West Ham while Huddersfield can put distance between themselves and the bottom three with a win against Newcastle at St James' Park.

    A lot has changed in two weeks since a ball was last kicked in the Premier League.

    Zlatan Ibrahimovic has departed these shores for a new life in Hollywood.

    He claimed on Friday that he wanted to join LA Galaxy side two years ago, before signing for Manchester United.

    Well that wish has finally come true now.

    29 goals, a League Cup and Europa League - was he a success in his brief time in England?
