Liverpool take on Crystal Palace this evening for a place in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals. Arne Slot’s side got back to losing ways at the weekend, as they were stunned 3-2 by Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium. Dango Ouattara, Kevin Schade, and Igor Thiago’s goals were enough to snatch all three points for the Bees, while Milos Kerkez and Mohammed Salah netted for the visitors. Salah returned to the starting lineup in west London after being dropped by Slot for the 5-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League, which snapped the Premier League champions’ four-game winless streak. With defeat at Brentford last weekend, Liverpool slipped to seventh in the table, but they have a chance to reset in cup competition here. That said, they are facing a bogey opponent, with Palace having beaten them twice already this season. Oliver Glasner’s Eagles overcame the Reds on penalties in the Community Shield curtain-raiser, before Eddie Nketiah bagged a last-minute winner at Selhurst Park to secure a 2-1 win in the league.
