Liverpool
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Everton and Liverpool, Liverpool will be aiming to move closer to the Europa League berth when they take on Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon. The Reds proved their worth in the St. James’ Park clash, and it is no wonder the odds for away win have been dropping. All Konate, Luis Diaz, and Thiago are sidelined with injuries, Darwin Nunez should be fit for the match.
The Eagles, on the other hand, failed to win the previous seven league fixtures. The capital club do not seem to be at their sharpest, and seeing that Liverpool have been showing signs of improvement of late, away triumph should be considered. Wilfried Zaha has yet to overcome a hamstring problem, while Nathan Ferguson remains on the sidelines due to the lack of fitness. Fellow defender Joel Ward faces race against the clock to be fit for Saturday’s clash.
Highlighted Player (Jean-Philippe Mateta):
A talented French youngster Jean-Philippe Mateta worked his way up through football’s less glamorous landscapes plying his trade at local amateur sides and third-tier outfits before Ligue 1 giants Lyon took notice of his 11 goals in 22 matches and brought him to the big league.
Having failed to make it into the first team in a debut season with Les Gones, Mateta was shipped out to Le Havre, leading the club to promotion play-offs. Bundesliga side Mainz took notice of his ability and came calling in the summer of 2018 after he bagged 17 goals in 35 league matches. An imposing physical presence at his 192cm, Mateta is a mobile forward and a decent dribbler who can finish with both of his feet.
Having worked his way up from the very bottom, Jean-Philippe Mateta is a committed individual determined to make a name for himself. His impressive goalscoring record got rewarded in the form of France U19 call-up in 2017.
Highlighted Team (Liverpool):
Founded back in 1892, Liverpool are one of England’s and world’s most famous clubs. The Reds hold a high-profile rivalry with Everton and there have always been fireworks when the two teams take on each other in the Merseyside derby.
The Reds welcome their opponents at Anfield and it has to be noted that they have already won 18 first division trophies. Liverpool were on the verge of lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, but Steven Gerrard slipped in the decider against Chelsea and left the Reds without a title.
Liverpool won one of their last Champions League trophy's in 2005, with the team coming from three goals behind to beat Milan in a historic clash in Istanbul. The Reds have clinched six European Cups and it is no surprise they are regarded as one of the greatest European clubs.
The likes of Steven Gerrard, Robbie Fowler, Paul Ince, Ian Rush, Graeme Souness, Sami Hyypia and Luis Suarez are some of the most notable footballers to have represented the club over the years. The club’s anthem is You’ll Never Walk Alone and their shirt colour is red.
