In the first instance, this means making the most of games like this one against an opponent which we know from experience only ever provides a proper test in whichever competition you come up against them."Today12:49 BSTWelcome very muchA very actually warm welcome to the latest game in Liverpool's season.Yes, it's the Premier League and it's Crystal Palace.Palace don't concede many goals and don't score many either and have already beaten Liverpool three times this season.Well, doesn't that just sound like a recipe for a cracker.Let's do this!Today12:43 BSTVirgil van Dijk's pre-match thoughtsWriting in his column in the matchday programme, the Reds skipper said: "This has not been the season we all wanted or envisaged, but the aim now is to make sure that we end it in a positive manner.

Nothing else will do."We welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield knowing that victory would put us in a strong position to secure that top-five place, and there can be no excuses from any of us."It's not the target we had in mind at the start of the season, but it's what we are fighting for now, so we have to deliver, we have to perform and we have to get the three points."I hope you all enjoyed last weekend's win over Everton. If we do that, we will come out the other side stronger."Today12:40 BSTGreetingsGood afternoon and welcome to the ECHO’s live coverage of Liverpool’s Premier League game against Crystal Palace.
