They’ve lost a few stars since then in the form of Trent Alexander-Arnold and more recently Luis Diaz, but there have been plenty of eye-catching new arrivals who have already integrated into Arne Slot’s squad throughout pre-season.

Palace, meanwhile, enter Sunday’s showpiece as the reigning FA Cup holders, having triumphed over heavy favourites and seven-time winners Manchester City to hoist the club’s first major trophy in history.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool team news

Eddie Nketiah is one man who will not be involved for Palace, having suffered a hamstring injury early on in the second of his team’s friendly double-header against Augsburg last week.

Few new signings have been made at Selhurst Park so far this summer, much to the chagrin of Palace boss Oliver Glasner.

He last scored there in his first outing, against the ground’s temporary inhabitants Tottenham back in October 2017.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool prediction

Liverpool are 16-time winners of the Community Shield, with the Reds last hoisting the trophy in 2022.

Palace, meanwhile, will compete on this stage for the first time.

Community Shield first-timers haven’t fared particularly well in recent history, with each of the last four such teams losing their contest - including two of them (Southampton in 1976 and Wimbledon in 1988) to Liverpool.

Still, the Eagles can take solace in having overcome the odds to beat City and make it this far, as well as the fact that the FA Cup winners have beaten the league champions to the Community Shield in seven of the last nine matches.

Liverpool, for their part, have also won the Community Shield outright only once in their last six attempts when coming in as league champions.

The game could be a close affair and will go straight to a penalty shootout - as three of the last five Community Shield matches have - if the scores are level after 90 minutes.

There have been a few heavy defeats in that time, including a 0-7 thrashing at Selhurst Park in 2020, but every tie since the start of the 2022-23 season has either ended in a draw or been decided by a single goal.

The Reds, in contrast, have beaten the Eagles 37 times, and took four points away from their pair of Premier League meetings last season including a campaign-ending draw in May.

These two sides have never met at Wembley, though, so that’s one piece of history still up for grabs along with this year’s Community Shield honours.
