The records: Crystal Palace and Liverpool upcoming match on Sept 27, 2025@ Home with head to head current sad record 😀😃 The Eagles rolling strong and proud, Palace did well , 18 games unbeaten plus in all football matches. Here’s the engine record ahead..
The Eagles Soar: Palace’s Unbeaten Run
Crystal Palace enter this fixture riding one of the most impressive streaks in recent club history. They are currently unbeaten in 17 games in all competitions (7 wins, 10 draws).
This stretch has elevated morale in Selhurst Park and drawn attention: they are now just one game away from equalling their own club record of 18 without defeat, a benchmark from August 1969.
Under Oliver Glasner, Palace’s performances have improved markedly: defensively more solid, capable of grinding out results, and in some games showing real attacking ambition. While many of their draws show how hard they are to beat, there is also a question: can they make the step up from “difficult opponent” to “giant killer”, especially against top clubs like Liverpool?

Liverpool: The Benchmark
Liverpool arrive in south London in strong form. They are unbeaten in the Premier League this season, winning all their matches so far.
They are top of the table, full of confidence, and their goal threat is abundant. Players like Mohamed Salah and others are firing, and under Arne Slot, they have a good balance between attack and defense. Expect Liverpool to be favourites, given their depth, experience, and recent history.

Head to Head & Recent Clashes
Looking at recent match-ups between the two sides:
They drew in the FA Community Shield earlier this season (2-2), a match Palace won on penalties.
They drew 1-1 in the Premier League at some point last season.
In 2023-24 and earlier seasons, Liverpool have had the edge in many league games, especially away from home. Palace tend to be resilient, sometimes frustrating, but often found wanting when it comes to converting chances against the top tier.
So, historically, and in recent years, Liverpool are the tougher proposition, especially away. But Palace’s current form means they can’t be scoffed at: they might not be favourites, but they have momentum, belief, and defensive solidity to make life difficult.

What’s at Stake
For Crystal Palace, this match is more than just three points:
Matching the club record of 18 unbeaten would cement this run as among the best ever for them.
Maintaining momentum across all competitions keeps morale high, helps squad unity, and could shift external perception: from being mid-table grinders to serious challengers.
At home, against a heavyweight, this is a chance to show they are capable of beating or at least containing quality sides.
For Liverpool:
They need to assert their dominance and maintain their perfect start. Any slip-up or draw will be magnified, given that expectations are sky high.
Tactical discipline will be vital: Palace are organised, patient, and tough to break down.
Winning away in London is always a test; maintaining form in such matches signals title credentials.

Key Players & Tactical Angles
Crystal Palace:
Defence & Goalkeeping: They’ll need to be tight at the back, minimize mistakes, and make set-pieces count (both defensively and offensively).
Midfield control: Winning the second balls, breaking up Liverpool’s rhythm, and using wide areas to stretch the game.
Attack: They’ll need ruthlessness. Against defensive teams they’ve often held, but against a high-calibre opponent, chances will likely be fewer; finishing matters. Players like Jean-Philippe Mateta, Tyrick Mitchell (goals in recent games), and Ismaïla Sarr could be crucial.
Liverpool:
High pressing, fast transitions, making the most of quality in attack.
Exploiting any lapses in Palace’s concentration.
Managing the game: not letting Palace settle too much, forcing them out of their defensive shape.

Prediction & What to Expect
Given everything, here are likely scenarios:
Palace will be tough to beat. Expect them to defend deep, be solid, look for counterattacks, perhaps try to frustrate Liverpool.
Liverpool will dominate possession, press high, look to open up the game, especially in wide areas and via forward runners.
Scoreline could be tight. A 2-1 Liverpool win seems plausible; but a draw is not out of the question if Palace are disciplined and Liverpool are less clinical or wasteful in front of goal.
If Palace somehow manage a win, it would go down as one of the great nights at Selhurst.

Verdict
Crystal Palace with 17 unbeaten, hungry to make history. Liverpool with perfect Premier League start and ambition.
What this match tells us:
Is Palace ready for the top-six pressure nights?
Can Liverpool maintain the consistency expected of title contenders?
Who will dominate the midfield? Who makes the decisive moment?

Final Word
On paper, Liverpool go into this match as favourites. But Palace have momentum, history in reach, home support, and a manager who has organized them well. If they can channel all of that, they might snatch something big.
For neutral fans, this promises to be a great test of character: Liverpool’s relentless ambition vs Palace’s resilience and desire to rewrite their recent history.
Palace proud. Let’s see if the Eagles can soar past the Reds.
