STAT ATTACK: Liverpool's 13 first-half shots prove unlucky against high-flying Eagles

The Opta stats that matter after Crystal Palace's 2-1 win at Liverpool in the Premier League

Liverpool won five and lost none of the first seven Premier League meetings with Palace, but The Eagles have won four and lost just one of the last six.

Crystal Palace won just one league game at Anfield between 1970 and 2013 but have won twice there in 2015.

Alan Pardew played in Palace’s first league win at Anfield in 1991 and has managed the side to their two other wins there in 2015.

Philippe Coutinho has scored as many goals in his last two appearances under Jurgen Klopp as his final 17 under Brendan Rodgers.

This defeat ended a run of six unbeaten in the league for Liverpool.

Palace have won 10 away games in the Premier League in 2015, only Arsenal (11) have more.

Liverpool had 13 first half shots. Only Arsenal have recorded more in a PL game this season (14, also against Palace).

Christian Benteke had five shots but only one was on target.
