Andy's assessment

We caught up with Andy Robertson ahead of the game and the left-back explained why Liverpool cannot afford to be at anything other than their best against the Eagles...

"If we can get our three points early doors on Saturday then it makes the rest of Saturday and Sunday a lot nicer and a lot easier, because you know you've put in a good performance and you've got the points in the bag," he said.

"But we know how hard Crystal Palace are, especially on their home turf with their fans - it's quite a hostile atmosphere and they'll make it as hard as they can.

"They're fighting for their lives down at the bottom and three points down there is so crucial to them. We need to make sure we're at our best and hopefully take our chances like we have been doing."
