What They're Saying
Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew (via Express): "It was going to be always a kind of historic game if we play Liverpool because of the history, not just of my time as a player, but also last year in the league and also the result this season. I think Brendan [Rodgers] mentioned that after the game. There will be a lot riding on the game in terms of passion and memories, and it's one that we can look forward to."
Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge (via Mail Online): "He's [Mario Balotelli] been waiting for a while to break his duck and been working very hard in training, and now he has scored one in the league. I am sure things will start to go his way now."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: With Steven Gerrard's injury, Emre Can will be able to slide into his more natural midfield position. In 14 league appearances, the 21-year-old is averaging 1.9 tackles and 1.4 interceptions.
Crystal Palace's Projected Lineup (4-4-1-1): Speroni; Kelly, Delaney, Hangeland, Ward; Bolasie, Ledley, McArthur, Puncheon; Gayle; Campbell
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (3-4-2-1): Mignolet; Sakho, Skrtel, Lovren; Moreno, Can, Henderson, Manquillo; Markovic, Lallana; Balotelli
