Liverpool are aiming to end a four-game winless run against Crystal Palace when the pair face off in the Premier League this weekend.The Reds have put some much-needed breathing room between themselves and sixth, but Brighton and Hove Albion are only six points adrift of Arne Slot’s side after they beat Chelsea on Tuesday.Liverpool also still have to play a number of sides who are competing for a Champions League spot, including the Blues, Aston Villa and Manchester United.In turn, anything but a win against Oliver Glasner’s Palace would not be ideal.
