Alarm bells were ringing loudly at Selhurst Park after Crystal Palace's poor start to the Premier League was worsened by a 2-1 defeat to struggling Everton last Saturday.
That left Palace stuck in the relegation zone without a win in the last 6 matches (D3, L3). The pressure is on coach Oliver Glasner because in history, there have only been 4 times when Palace have gone through the first 7 matches of the season in the English top flight without a win.
3 out of 4 times they were relegated.
The only positive for the Eagles from the Everton game was that they finally experienced the feeling of leading or scoring before half-time this season.
Palace must now turn their attention to another Merseyside club in Liverpool, a side they have beaten in just one of their last 14 meetings (D2 L11), although that win came in their most recent meeting.
The home side have the chance to win back-to-back games against The Kop for the first time since November 2015, but that looks unlikely.
Things are going well at Liverpool. They are top of the Premier League, recently eased through the third round of the Carabao Cup with a 5-1 win over West Ham and won both of their UEFA Champions League games.
Those things helped Arne Slot become the first Liverpool coach to win 8/9 of his first matches in charge (losing 1).
8 wins from 9 is exactly what Liverpool have achieved when visiting Selhurst Park in the top flight (D1). The Reds have also won all 3 away games this Premier League season and are looking to win 4 away games in the opening stages of a season for only the third time in their history.
