A combination of Wilfried Zaha and Jordan Ayew gets a Liverpool corner away. But it is momentary respite for the visitors. One-way traffic.

Two big chances!

Liverpool come forward again. Virgil van Dijk finds Mohamed Salah on the right and he cuts inside to set up a chance for Harvey Elliott, who drives and then fires a shot that is blocked.

Seconds later, a cross finds Darwin Nunez at the back post. He should score really but volleys over.

Just a matter of time, the way this is going.

Adam: The disrespectful comments I'm reading from Liverpool fans for Nat Phillips. Have people forgotten what he did for us a couple of seasons ago? He has put his body on the line for this club, give him some respect.

Palace can't keep hold of the ball. Nat Phillips wins his first battle with Wilfried Zaha, who goes down and wants a free-kick. He won't get one. Reason being that he wasn't fouled.

It is pretty clear Liverpool do not intend to let this game get away from them, as the one down at Fulham did. They were off-colour there. Here they are definitely in the mood to make amends.

Already worrying for Palace, this. Ominous.

Mohamed Salah gets down the right and sets up Harvey Elliott for a shot that is blocked.

Adam: I'm a Liverpool fan but there is no way we compete on all fronts this season, especially with a World Cup halfway through the season. Too many injury-prone players. Klopp is the best thing to happen to us for years but he needs to sign someone, he really does.

Richard Browne: That Liverpool squad is a worry, it's pretty thin already. Think they need to go shopping.

Liverpool are looking for that fast start.

Trent Alexander-Arnold floats another cross into the middle. This time Vicente Guaita plucks it out of the air.

Yep, the Palace keeper is back up. We carry on.

Sam Johnstone is warming up in case Guaita is done. He's getting some extra strapping on his shin. Think that means he'll be OK to carry on.

Looks like Milner caught Guaita with his follow-through after the shot. The Palace keeper needs a bit of treatment.

Big chance!

Almost the perfect start for Liverpool as Vicente Guaita palms out Trent Alexander-Arnold's cross ahead of Darwin Nunez. James Milner charges in but lashes his shot over.

After the first rendition of 'You'll Never Walk Alone' of the season at Anfield, we are under way.

Palace with an extra defender and some quick forwards, Liverpool with a Darwin Nunez-enhanced attack but a weakened defence. How's that going to play out?

The teams are in the tunnel. Let's get ready to rumble.

BBC pundit Chris Sutton is taking on the challenge from Mark Lawrenson for the 2022-23 campaign and will try to pick the correct scores for every top-flight game against a variety of guests - and this season you can get involved too.

For this weekend's fixtures, he is up against Kasabian frontman and Leicester City fan Serge Pizzorno.

Sutton's prediction: 4-0

Palace got off to a bad start losing at home to Arsenal, and things don't get any easier for them here.

Liverpool cannot slip up again in this one after dropping points against Fulham.

The Reds have got a few injury problems, but the big thing for Jurgen Klopp is that he has to start new striker Darwin Nunez.

Even some Liverpool fans would question Klopp if he leaves him on the bench, but I don't see that happening.

This is going to be routine for Liverpool and a difficult night for Palace.

Serge's prediction:3-0

It's at Anfield and I think we'll see Liverpool back to their usual selves.

Find out how Sutton and Pizzorno think the rest of the weekend's action will go and vote on the result you expect here.

ClueTheGoalie: I watched Nat Phillips a lot last season when he was on loan at Bournemouth and I was impressed and became an instant fan. I think (and hope) he has a good game and can challenge for a first-team spot.

Liverpool veteran James Milner thinks new signing Darwin Nunez will "have an impact on the club for a long time".

Nunez, who joined the Reds from Benfica in June, scored on his competitive debut in Liverpool's Community Shield win over Manchester City, and was on target in Saturday's draw at Fulham in Jurgen Klopp's side's opening Premier League fixture.

"We've already got some very exciting attacking players who can cause problems, so he's a great addition; he'll be fantastic for us," Milner told Liverpoolfc.com.

"I think he'll have an impact the whole time he's here."

Milner said Liverpool's new striker works hard, makes great runs and is "desperate to put his head on the ball in the box".

"If you put a ball in there, he'll do everything he can to get on the end of it," Milner added. "He's a good finisher - both feet - and he's different to the other boys up there."
