【Season 011】I hope Liverpool will win in regular time

Crystal Palace ranked 12th in the Premier League last season with a record of 13 wins, 14 draws and 11 losses. Compared with the previous seasons, the team's strength has improved a lot on paper and has never been in the middle level. It is also worth mentioning that Crystal Palace broke out as a dark horse in the FA Cup last season, defeating Manchester City and Aston Villa, and finally won the first FA Cup championship in team history. During the offseason, the Crystal Palace lineup did not change much from last season. Although Eze, Gee, Mattha, Adam Walton and others were all involved in transfer rumors, they have not left the team at present. In terms of recent situation, Crystal Palace participated in 7 friendly matches during the offseason, achieving a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, but the team lost two of the last three friendly matches, and its condition declined slightly. From the perspective of the match, Crystal Palace has only achieved 1 win, 3 draws and 6 losses against Liverpool in the previous 10 times, and the team is at a clear disadvantage in the psychological level of the match. Liverpool was the Premier League champion last season. Slott led the Reds to a record of 25 wins, 9 draws and 4 losses in his first season, and won the championship four rounds ahead of schedule. In terms of lineup, Liverpool has spent nearly 300 million euros in the offseason to introduce four new players, Wiltz, Ekitic, Kolkz and Flynnon. However, Arnold, Louis Dias, Nunes, Konsa, Kellech, Morton and others have also left. In addition to Jota who died unexpectedly, the thickness of Liverpool's overall lineup has not been substantially improved. Judging from the recent situation, Liverpool participated in five friendly matches in the offseason and achieved a record of 4 wins and 1 loss. During this period, it included a back-to-back double-killing La Liga powerhouse Athletic Bilbao. One of the losses was only 2-4 but lost to Serie A giant AC Milan, which is normal.

Comprehensive analysis: Liverpool's lineup has changed a lot during the offseason, and Crystal Palace's lineup is similar to last season; from the perspective of the match, the Reds have an absolute advantage, and they are far stronger than Crystal Palace in terms of team heritage. This Ezekiel Shield Cup will be the first championship competition in the new season. Liverpool is still very strong in fighting, and it is optimistic that they will win in regular time.
