Crystal Palace were the last team to beat Liverpool at home in the Premier League, in April 2017, and they travel to Anfield this weekend.

League leaders Liverpool got back to winning ways with a disciplined 1-0 win at Brighton last week, and can stretch their lead at the top to seven ahead of Manchester City’s game at Huddersfield on Sunday.

After losing 2-1 at home to Watford last week, Roy Hodgson’s team lie in 14th place on 22 points, but just four points off the relegation zone. Follow the live action below.

What time does it start?

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace kicks off at 3:00pm (GMT) on Saturday 19th January.

Where can I watch it?

The match will not be shown live on TV or online in the UK.

Independent Sport will keep you up to date with all the goals as they fly in via our live blog.

Highlights will be shown at 10:20pm on BBC One.

Player to watch…

Mohamed Salah: The Egyptian was once again the match-winner last week at Brighton, winning and scoring the penalty which secured three important points. Currently joint top-scorer in the Premier League on 14 goals alongside Harry Kane and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Salah is at times being deployed as a central striker, a role he is thriving in as Liverpool look to stay clear of Manchester City.

Bournemouth 1-0 West Ham, 70 minutes

Callum Wilson is so close to a second, but Lukasz Fabianski's fingertips and the woodwork combine to keep his drilled effort out.

GOAL! Manchester United 2-1 Brighton (Pascal Gross, 72 minutes)

​Hope for Brighton!

A delectable outside-of-the-boot pass from Davy Propper feeds Pascal Gross who finds the finish to get Brighton back in things at Old Trafford.

GOAL! Liverpool 3-2 Crystal Palace (Mohamed Salah, 75 minutes)

Salah at the double, and Liverpool back in front!

Julian Speroni makes a right mess of a James Milner cross, palming towards his own net and Mohamed Salah knocks home the simplest of goals.

Bournemouth 1-0 West Ham, 78 minutes

Samir Nasri troubles Artur Boruc from distance, but the Bournemouth goalkeeper saves well from Nasri's firm strike.

Bournemouth holding on for the time being.

Into the final ten minutes at most of the six games.

Will there be any late drama?

Liverpool 3-2 Crystal Palace, 83 minutes

Jeffrey Schlupp has a chance to put Palace back on level terms, but can't direct his header towards goal.

Southampton 2-0 Everton, 85 minutes

It is looking like a disappointing trip South for Marco Silva and Everton, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin's header over the bar from Seamus Coleman's cross.

It remains 2-0 to Southampton and back-to-back wins are about five minutes away.

RED CARD! James Milner is sent off! Liverpool 3-2 Crystal Palace, 89 minutes

A second booking for James Milner as he fells Wilfried Zaha. A late twist at Anfield?

GOAL! Bournemouth 2-0 West Ham (Joshua King, 90 minutes)

King secures it for Bournemouth!

West Ham academy graduate Junior Stanislas threads it through for David Brooks, and the Welsh international finds Joshua King to double Bournemouth's lead and secure the three points.
