I'm not sure if it's just me but these 17:30 kick-offs always seem to be dull. Maybe I'm imagining it - but this has not been the most exciting game so far.

....and just as soon as that comes up comes this:
GOAL Crystal Palace 1-0 Liverpool - Fraizer Campbell

That worked like a dream! Palace lead and it's defensive disarray for Liverpool. Martin Skrtel dithers with a high ball in behind, his header is weak and Dwight Gaye reads it. Gayle is brave to go in for the header with Simon Mignolet. Mignolet bats it down and there is Fraizer Campbell, right on cue, to sweep home from six yards out.
The Palace fans erupt.

"A great run by Dwight Gayle, and it was a rather anaemic punch by Simon Mignolet. He got in a bit of a mess and Fraizer Campbell, following up, thrust the ball into the net on his right foot, on the rebound. Just earlier the home fans seemed to sense something was going to happen. They raised the noise levels, and it's Palace who have been asking the questions."

Palace new boy Pape Souare clatters into Jordan Henderson with his knee, a really high challenge, and is lucky not to be booked. An ugly challenge. Can Liverpool find a route back into the game?

GREAT SAVE! Crystal Palace 1-0 Liverpool

Plenty of empty seats behind the goal which Liverpool are attacking - and attack they do. Patient build-up, left to right and back again, they pass up a shooting chance, and again, but then burst into life. Jordan Henderson into Adam Lallana, great one-touch stuff, and Lallana's drive is turned away by Julian Speroni. Really fine play from Liverpool.

A tremendous block from Scott Dann keeps out Philippe Coutinho's blaster, Joel Ward then controls the ball between his chest and the floor, and somehow manages to roll away from it without handballing it. Quite brilliant from the Eagles defender.

"Crystal Palace need a little breather here. Liverpool are applying the pressure. The home side need to get some passing passages together because although they've got the cushion they haven't established any rhythm yet. This is a big challenge for Jordan Henderson playing in the central midfield position for Liverpool, the position Steve Gerrard has filled for years."

Martin Skrtel must have nightmares about Dwight Gayle. Gayle tormented him to score twice in that classic 3-3 draw at the back end of last season, has already mugged him in the build-up to Palace's goal tonight and now gets past him again, skinning him inside the box. He's such a livewire.

...maybe the Transfer Committee should sign Gayle over the summer, right?

Jordan Henderson is booked for a tussle with Dwight Gayle - there didn't appear too much, if any contact - and Henderson then lashes in a shot which is turned away by Julian Speroni. Great save - and then Daniel Sturridge wants a penalty as he collects a bouncing ball - no dice!

Liverpool still turning on the pressure, as Joe Allen fires a volley just wide from 20 yards. Into the last 10 minutes of the first half.

"What with Daniel Sturridge claiming for a penalty (see 30 mins) there have certainly been some early decisions for the referee to make, that's for sure. I always go with that great Yorkshire expression: 'If in doubt give nowt.' All of these decisions are so marginal."

Liverpool have completed more than double the amount of passes as Palace, but for all their play they've only really put one quality move together, when Adam Lallana had a shot well saved. Palace are ahead and happy to sit back and hit on the break.

CLOSE! Crystal Palace 1-0 Liverpool

More of what Lazar Markovic is all about as he picks the ball up on the right, drives inside, commits two defenders, beats another - but then shoots over from 20 yards on his left foot. He's a dangerman but without enough end product right now.

Dwight Gayle for 2-0... no! Gayle should score, he's in behind the static Liverpool defence again but all credit to Simon Mignolet, out quickly and making himself really big to save with his left ankle. A big moment.

"Crystal Palace have created chances but so far there has been very little controlled passing from the home side. They are defending resolutely though - determined, dogged defensive work.

"Alan Pardew is kicking every ball in the technical area. He will be more than happy to reach half-time in front, but I do think Palace look a little bit vulnerable down the left-hand side, where Daniel Sturridge has found space a few times."
