Premier League team news and injury latest as Liverpool, Man Utd and Arsenal stars miss out
Liverpool will be looking to continue its strong start to the season when it takes on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Barring the home defeat to Nottingham Forest, it has been an excellent first couple of months for Arne Slot and that continued with a victory over Bologna in the Champions League in midweek.
Liverpool goes into this weekend's clash sitting top of the Premier League table and will look to extend that lead before the rest of the chasing pack take to the field. Palace meanwhile remain winless under Oliver Glasner after throwing away a lead against Everton last weekend.

Speaking ahead of the match, Slot said: "You always look at the first one and that's Crystal Palace. I think they already showed how tough of an opponent they are against the big teams.
"That's the first game and that's why it's the most important one, and a difficult one for us: 12.30 kick-off after playing on Wednesday evening late in the Champions League, facing again a team that has a whole week to prepare. But that is part of working at a top club, that we face those teams and we have to be ready for those teams.
