Liverpool vs Crystal Palace LIVE! Premier League result, match stream and latest updates today

Liverpool's quest for a Premier League title in manager Juergen Klopp's final season with the team suffered a huge blow with a 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace at Anfield on Sunday that left them third in the table.

Eberechi Eze scored in the 14th minute to stun the Anfield faithful in the third consecutive disappointing result for Liverpool. Klopp's men are even on 71 points with second-placed Arsenal, who were playing later on Sunday, and two behind provisional leaders Manchester City.

Tyrick Mitchell found Eze unmarked in the box after some good passing and Eze slotted home with his first touch to put Palace ahead. Poor finishing by Liverpool, including Curtis Jones's shot on a breakaway that he fired wide, secured the win for the visitors.

Liverpool were coming off a 3-0 loss to Atalanta in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final on Thursday and a costly 2-2 draw with Manchester United in their previous league game on April 7.

Unanticipated anguish leaves Liverpool's hopes hanging by a thread

16:30 , Jonathan Gorrie

A week is a long time in football, and seven days of wholly unanticipated anguish have severely harmed Liverpool’s hopes of lifting silverware in Jurgen Klopp’s final season at the helm.

Last Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford was the one that got away for the Reds — their dominance untold by the final score-line. But twice in the last four days, a return to their trusty fortress of Anfield has thrown up shock defeats that threaten to ruin Liverpool’s once oh-so-promising campaign.

Just as Thursday’s 3-0 Europa League pummelling here at the hands of Atalanta, precious few saw Sunday’s 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace coming. It hands Arsenal and Manchester City genuine boosts in their title charge but was all of Liverpool’s own making.

16:00 , Jonathan Gorrie

Crystal Palace kickstarted the Oliver Glanser era with a remarkable win over title-chasing Liverpool at Anfield.

An Eberechi Eze strike after a free-flowing team move in the first half was enough for the Eagles to claim only their second win under the Austrian.

FT: Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:58 , Jonathan Gorrie

IT’S OVER!

Liverpool undone by a shocking start and poor finishing. Dreamland for Palace.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:56 , Jonathan Gorrie

95 mins: Palace have settled in the last few minutes and have stopped the wave after wave of Liverpool attack.

They are so close now.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:54 , Jonathan Gorrie

93 mins: It’s all Liverpool now but, still, they are yet to find a way through.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:52 , Jonathan Gorrie

90 mins: Lerma blocks Salah’s shot on the line!

As poor as Liverpool have been, they should have scored at least three!

15:51 , Jonathan Gorrie

90 mins: SEVEN minutes added on.

15:50 , Jonathan Gorrie

88 mins: Edouard on for Mateta now as Palace look to freshen things up. You sense they’ll be doing a LOT of defending in the closing stages.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:47 , Jonathan Gorrie

85 mins: Palace very last ditch now, as you’d imagine.

They’re hoofing everything away.

Dom Smith at Anfield

15:38 , Jonathan Gorrie

Huge chances for Mateta and Jones (twice) go begging. This game should be about 3-3. Instead, the hosts are still yet to beat Dean Henderson.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:37 , Jonathan Gorrie

75 mins: Jones through on the counter after a lovely ball from Gakpo but puts it WIDE.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

73 mins: Mateta HAS to score after Andersen’s knockdown but Alisson saves!

15:33 , Jonathan Gorrie

72 mins: Clyne denies Jota pretty much on the line. He should be finishing that.

Dom Smith at Anfield

15:30 , Jonathan Gorrie

Exceptional clearance over the bar by Andersen, with Henderson immediately embaccing him. Into the final 20 minutes and Palace still lead. What an incredible result this would be for them, and for the complexion of the title race at the other end of the table.

15:26 , Jonathan Gorrie

65 mins: Gakpo and Jota coming on for Nunez and Diaz as Klopp goes for broke.

Dom Smith at Anfield

15:18 , Jonathan Gorrie

Dean Henderson playing a blinder at Anfield. With Sam Johnstone injured, Henderson surely the most likely candidate to go to Euro 2024 as England's third-choice GK behind Pickford and Ramsdale.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:16 , Jonathan Gorrie

54 mins: WHAT A SAVE!

Nunez swivels and shoots on Van Dijk’s knockdown from a corner but fires it straight at Henderson!

It’s a fine stop but the striker should be scoring.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

15:13 , Jonathan Gorrie

52 mins: Munoz with a lovely touch to get around Robertson but Hughes sees his shot on the cutback blocked.

Liverpool have not got going at all here.

15:08 , Jonathan Gorrie

47 mins: Liverpool forced into another change as Bradley limps off with what looks like an ankle injury.

Alexander-Arnold is onto replace him. Not a bad one.

Back underway!

15:06 , Jonathan Gorrie

Surely it can only get better for Liverpool from here? Szoboszlai on for Endo.

How Palace took the lead...

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:52 , Jonathan Gorrie

Palace, as they were in last weekend’s 4-2 defeat to Manchester City, just such a threat on the counter-attack. Eze crosses early and Mateta gets ahead of the Liverpool backline to punch a header just over the bar. Again, unlucky from Oliver Glasner’s side. Yes, Liverpool have had chances, but they could be three up!

HT: Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:51 , Jonathan Gorrie

Reds lucky to head into the break only a goal behind.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:45 , Jonathan Gorrie

41 mins: Alisson gets down well to deny Olise from just outside the box.

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:43 , Jonathan Gorrie

Understandably given the score and the repercussions defeat here would have on their title chances, Liverpool’s fans are voicing their frustration whenever the defence does not play the ball quickly into midfield or beyond. The last thing Liverpool fans want to see from their side here is a lethargic performance when their side are already a goal down.

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:43 , Jonathan Gorrie

Encouraging for Liverpool — and daunting for Palace — that Salah is just beginning to assert himself on this game.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:39 , Jonathan Gorrie

35 mins: Olise’s touch lets him down after a lovely ball from Eze.

Palace, despite Liverpool’s recent dominance, could be 3-0 up.

33 mins: Henderson pushes Salah’s shot wide as Anfield starts to rise.

14:36 , Jonathan Gorrie

32 mins: Salah rolls it back for Mac Allister but the Palace wall block the shot.

Liverpool are starting to have much the better of it now.

14:34 , Jonathan Gorrie

31 mins: Mac Allister fouled just outside the box in a great position for a Liverpool free-kick.

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:33 , Jonathan Gorrie

Endo so close to giving Liverpool the early equaliser they crave here. And now Henderson springs up to deny Diaz from close range. Liverpool pushing Palace hard now, as Konate heads over the bar. You sense it won’t be long before they’re level.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:32 , Jonathan Gorrie

27 mins: OFF THE BAR!

A melee in the Palace box after a corner and Endo fashions a shot, which hits the bar.

Couldn’t sort his feet out in time to get a clear connection.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:32 , Jonathan Gorrie

28 mins: Henderson keeps Diaz’s acrobatic effort out after a fine cross-field ball from Robertson.

Konate then heads over the resulting corner.

14:28 , Jonathan Gorrie

24 mins: Sign of life from Liverpool as Diaz starts to cause problems of the Palace back three.

14:23 , Jonathan Gorrie

19 mins: A really poor start from Liverpool here. They’re sloppy on the ball and leggy off of it.

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:22 , Jonathan Gorrie

What a clearance from Andy Robertson. The sort of fine margin that could decide the title. Incredible. Mateta inches from scoring Palace’s second.

Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace

14:21 , Jonathan Gorrie

17 mins: OFF THE LINE!

Van Dijk slips and Mateta is through on goal, he looks to chip Alisson but Robertson clears it off the line!

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:19 , Jonathan Gorrie

What a moment for Palace, and what a potentially seismic moment in the shape of the title race! A lovely flowing move down the left totally beats Liverpool, with Eze on hand to convert from close range.

14:17 , Jonathan Gorrie

13 mins: GOAL!

Lovely patient play from Palace down the left sees Mitchell find Mitchell, who pulls back for Eze to fire underneath Alisson.

Dom Smith at Anfield

14:13 , Jonathan Gorrie

Pretty end-to-end start here, and Liverpool nearly into the lead through Nunez. Uruguayan could maybe have taken an extra touch to get him closer to the goal from Robertson’s lay-off. Henderson made a comfortable save

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace

14:11 , Jonathan Gorrie

07 mins: A first chance for Liverpool as Robertson drives forward and frees Nunez, who shoots straight at Henderson.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace

14:06 , Jonathan Gorrie

03 mins: The hosts starting to see a touch more of the ball now, albeit they are yet to threaten the Palace goal.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace

14:04 , Jonathan Gorrie

01 mins: Alisson called into action early as he collects Mitchell’s cross before saving Eze’s shot from just outside the box.

Not a great start for Liverpool.

Oliver Glasner issues clear response to Daniel Munoz swapping shirts with Erling Haaland at half-time

Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner says he has no problem with Daniel Munoz swapping shirts with Erling Haaland at half-time.

Some Palace fans were unhappy Munoz asked Manchester City star Haaland for his shirt as the players headed down the tunnel at Selhurst Park on Saturday.

Liverpool team news vs Crystal Palace today

Diogo Jota made his long-awaited return to the Liverpool team on Thursday, and is likely to be involved against Palace.

Alisson and Trent Alexander-Arnold could also make their returns to the Premier League.

“Obviously we didn’t rush it with the boys,” Klopp said on Wednesday. “You can but we didn’t, that means they did a lot of training by themselves, especially Diogo and Trent, [they] worked as a group for two or three weeks really properly training. So, [they] looked very good yesterday, to be honest.”

Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, and Ben Doak are all out.
