Crystal Palace vs Liverpool tips
Our Bet Builder selections: Liverpool to win, both teams to score (Yes) and Cody Gakpo to score anytime at 5/1. ADD TO YOUR BET SLIP HERE!
Here’s why we’ve made those selections..
Liverpool to win: This looks like a strong opportunity for Premier League champions Liverpool to lay down a marker ahead of the new campaign. The Reds arrive with a host of big-money signings and have enjoyed a prolific pre-season, scoring 15 goals and winning all but one fixture. They also boast an impressive recent record at Wembley, winning four of their last five under the arch.
Both teams to score – Yes: Liverpool have managed just one clean sheet in their last 13 competitive games – and that came against relegated Leicester. Crystal Palace, meanwhile, have scored in each of their last 13 matches and have found the net in four of their last six encounters with Liverpool.
Cody Gakpo to score anytime: The 26-year-old enters the match in fine form, with four goals in four pre-season appearances, including a brace against Athletic Bilbao. Gakpo also has a habit of scoring in cup competitions – registering 16 goals in 32 appearances across the Champions League, Europa League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup over the past two seasons.
