Key Prediction Insights

Liverpool are firm favourites at Anfield with a 73.0% chance of victory, compared to just 13.0% for Crystal Palace and a 14.0% probability of a draw. The model points to a home win and an over 2.5 goals prediction, with a 57.0% likelihood of three or more goals. In the table, Liverpool sit 5th on 55 points chasing Champions League football, while Palace are 13th on 43 points, comfortably mid-table.

Match Analysis

Liverpool come into this on a mixed but generally positive run: two wins and one defeat in their last three. They edged Everton 2-1 away and beat Fulham 2-0 at home before a 2-1 loss at Brighton, showing both their attacking punch and occasional defensive lapse. Over the last five matches they’ve averaged 2.6 goals scored and 1.2 conceded, with xG numbers of 1.956 for and 1.324 against, underlining a side that consistently creates more than it allows. Crystal Palace’s recent form is steadier rather than spectacular: unbeaten in three, with two goalless draws against West Ham and Leeds either side of a 2-1 win over Newcastle. That run suggests organisation and resilience, especially at the back. Their last five games show 1.4 goals scored and 1.2 conceded on average, with xG of 1.206 for and 1.446 against, hinting that they’ve sometimes conceded chances but have not always been punished.

Under/Over 2.5 Goals Prediction

The over 2.5 prediction is backed at 57.0%, and recent scorelines support a leaning towards goals. Two of Liverpool’s last three matches finished with three goals (2-1 at Everton, 1-2 at Brighton), while only the 2-0 win over Fulham came in under 2.5. Palace, by contrast, have seen just one of their last three go over 2.5 (the 2-1 win over Newcastle), with the other two ending 0-0. Liverpool’s averages of 2.6 scored and 1.2 conceded, alongside their stronger xG, give this fixture real potential to tip over 2.5 despite Palace’s recent low-scoring draws.

Corners Prediction

Corners Probability Distribution

Distribution
Probability of each corner count outcome
Cumulative Probability (CDF)
Probability of corners ≤ X
The corners prediction points to around 10.0 total corners, which fits the numbers on both sides. Liverpool’s last three have produced 7, 15 and 12 corners respectively, as their front-foot style naturally generates set-piece situations. Palace’s matches have seen 10, 6 and 11 corners, with their organised shape still allowing for spells of pressure and wide deliveries. Put together, the predicted corners tally of 10.0 looks a fair reflection of two teams who work the flanks and force blocks in the box.

Shots Prediction

Shots Probability Distribution

Distribution
Probability of each shot count outcome
Cumulative Probability (CDF)
Probability of shots ≤ X
The expected shots figure sits at 24.56, consistent with Liverpool’s habit of racking up attempts. They have taken 14, 18 and 12 shots in their last three games, while allowing 10, 19 and 16. Palace, meanwhile, have posted 9, 11 and 12 shots, conceding 9, 7 and 10. This shots prediction is in line with Liverpool’s superior xG and attacking volume, suggesting a match where the hosts do most of the shooting but Palace still pose some threat.

Goal Spread Prediction

Goal Spread Probability Distribution

Positive = Liverpool wins by X goals. Negative = Crystal Palace wins by X goals.

Distribution
Probability of each goal difference outcome
Goal spread probability distribution for Liverpool vs Crystal Palace with expected spread of +1.0
Cumulative Probability (CDF)
Probability of goal difference ≤ X
Cumulative goal spread probability chart for Liverpool vs Crystal Palace
The goal spread prediction has Liverpool favoured by 1.03 goals, reflecting expectations of a relatively clear home win. Recent results back that up: Liverpool’s last three show a combined goal difference of +1 (five scored, four conceded), while Palace’s is +1 as well (two goals for, one against) but built on far tighter, lower-scoring games. With Liverpool’s higher scoring rate and stronger underlying attacking metrics, the expected spread aligns closely with their 73.0% win probability.

Final Prediction

Liverpool’s superior firepower, stronger xG profile and home advantage explain why they are so heavily favoured to take the points and push their top‑five push. Palace’s discipline and recent clean sheets mean they won’t be easy to break down, but the key factor to watch will be whether Liverpool’s attacking tempo can stretch Palace’s back line early and turn sustained pressure into goals.
