The final ‘week two’ Premier League clash sees Liverpool welcoming Crystal Palace to Anfield on Monday night. Both sides failed to grab a win on their opening games last weekend, with Liverpool being held to a 2-2 draw at Fulham, while Palace lost at home to Arsenal.
The match betting expects the former Premier League champions – Liverpool – to get all three points here with the Reds on offer at just
1.20, with the Draw 6.50 and Palace as big as 15.00. This repeat fixture last term saw an easy Liverpool 3-0 win – this can be backed at 7.50.
Liverpool took 6 points off Palace last season and head into this game having won their last 10 against the Eagles.
It’s generally a clash that produces goals though, which is good news for the neutrals out there. 17 of the last 20 match-ups saw OVER 2.5
GOALS, so the 1.53 on this looks a solid option, or you can take it further with OVER 3.5 GOALS at 2.30.
Both teams have scored in 14 of the last 19 head-to-heads too – this can be backed at 2.20. We’ve only seen one draw in the last 21 head-to-heads so there is
generally a result and at the moment it’s normally to Liverpool.
In fact, Palace have also only netted one goal in their last 6 vs Liverpool, so a home clean sheet at 1.66 is another tempter.
No shock to see the scoring markets dominated by Liverpool players – the 9 in the betting are all Reds! Mo Salah is, of course, their main man at
4.00 (1st) and 1.72 (anytime) with Darwin Nunez at 4.75 (1st) or 1.90 (anytime).
BEST BET: OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 1.53
