Mark Schwarzer, Ex-Middlesbrough keeper on Football Focus: Crystal Palace have to take a couple of steps backwards to go back to how they played last season. If De Boer wants to stick with his system he may have to suffer few bad results. Sometimes managers change things too quickly and that might be happening at Crystal Palace.

They haven't brought in a lot of players and you have got to have the players to play the system. If he hasn't got ball-playing players you can't enforce it on them.

(BBC Sport) Benteke to score?
--What are the chances of Christian Benteke scoring at Anfield against his old club?

He got both as Palace won 2-1 at Anfield in April but has scored just one goal since.

(BBC Sport) Sturridge is back
Liverpool v Crystal Palace (15:00 BST)
--Jurgen Klopp on starting forward Daniel Sturridge for the first time this season: "Offensively, Daniel is back and that’s good news. I think it makes sense after a very good period pre-season then a short break with a little muscle thing that we bring him in immediately and try to use his quality. That’s the plan.”

Simon Brotherton, BBC MOTD commentator: Behind the Philippe Coutinho cloud that hangs in the air, the first week of the new season suggests not much has changed at Anfield, with an exhilarating attack at one end of the pitch countered by an unpredictable and sometimes leaky defence at the other.

Nonetheless, they'll fancy their chances here against a Palace side who came unstuck in a big way at home to promoted Huddersfield last week.

It was an inauspicious start for new manager Frank de Boer as his team try to get to grips with a new style, but they did at least create some chances.

Wilfred Zaha's absence is a blow, but surprisingly they've won this fixture at Anfield in each of the last three seasons.

Mark Lawrenson, Former Liverpool defender on BBC Radio 5 live: I think Liverpool's team is far away than their first 11. The selection has weakened them. Whether they are strong enough to beat Crystal Palace remains to be seen.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace
(4 mins) - Liverpool are immediately on the front foot. Daniel Sturridge launches a move which ends in Patrick van Aanholt making a mess of a clearance which almost presents the Reds with the opening goal.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace
--All quiet in terms of chances at Anfield but just look at how much possession Liverpool have enjoyed in the opening exchanges.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace
(9 mins) - Remember Liverpool's marking from set-pieces against Watford? The Reds concede a free-kick just outside their area which is whipped in and James Tomkins heads over.

Alarm bells ringing again in the Liverpool defence.

Liverpool 0-0 Crystal Palace
(11 mins) - First sign of real danger from Liverpool and it comes from an unlikely source. James Milner cuts in from the left but his powerful drive is straight at Wayne Hennessey.
