Story summary

Liverpool will face Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday, November 8, at 2 PM GMT. Andoni Iraola's team recently suffered a disappointing loss to Arsenal and a surprising defeat against Dirk Kuyt’s side in the Champions League. Despite these setbacks, Trey Nyoni has been a standout player for Liverpool, scoring his seventh goal in 13 appearances in their recent Champions League match against Fenerbahce. If Ryan Gravenberch remains unavailable due to injury, Nyoni is expected to pair with Alexis Mac Allister in midfield. The predicted lineup includes goalkeeper Alisson; defenders Araujo, Jacquet, Van Dijk, and Kerkez; midfielders Szoboszlai and Mac Allister; and forwards Gakpo, Wirtz, Barcola, and Isak. Players Frimpong, Leoni, and Ekitike are injured, while Gravenberch is a doubt.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
