Anfield will set the stage for a party atmosphere on the final day of the season as Premier League champions Liverpool welcome FA Cup winners Crystal Palace for what is essentially an exhibition match with no stakes but plenty of vibes. Sitting proudly atop the table with 83 points from 37 matches, the Reds are prepared to once again celebrate their title win. Their imperious home form—14 wins, 3 draws, and a solitary loss—has been the bedrock of their campaign, and they will look to deliver another dominant display in front of their supporters to send them into the summer happy.
Crystal Palace also arrive in good form and in the mood to party off the back of their FA Cup final victory over Man City. Unbeaten in their last six matches, including four victories and a draw, the Eagles have proven they are no easy opposition. Currently 12th in the league with 52 points, Palace will aim to extend their impressive run. Jean-Philippe Mateta, a pivotal figure in their attack, could be key to unlocking a Liverpool defence that boasts a league-best goal difference of +45. Yet, Palace’s inconsistency on the road—failing to score in three away matches this season—could hinder their ambitions.
All eyes will be on Mohamed Salah, Liverpool’s talismanic forward and top scorer with 28 goals this term. His clinical finishing has been instrumental, with Liverpool scoring in nine consecutive matches. The Reds have historically dominated this fixture, winning nine of the last 12 encounters, including a narrow 1-0 triumph in their previous meeting. Palace, by contrast, have managed just one win in their last five Premier League clashes against Liverpool, underscoring the challenge they face.
