The Reds look more and more like the team that challenged for and eventually won a Premier League title under Jurgen Klopp. Liverpool sit on 10 points after four matches and beat 10-man Leeds United 3-0 at Elland Road last weekend to sit joint top alongside Manchester United, Chelsea and Everton. 
 
"It's always difficult to come here. It's difficult to find space but once you can, it kind of opens up and you're able to create chances – and I think that's what we did," Trent Alexander-Arnold told Liverpoolfc.com after their match in Leeds. 

"We could have been a lot more clinical, put the game to bed earlier and really probably scored a lot more goals.

"But you never turn your nose up at a 3-0 win at Elland Road – a clean sheet, three goals and three points."
 
Crystal Palace are up and running under Patrick Vieira. A brace from Odsonne Édouard inspired the Eagles to a 3-0 win of their own over 10-man Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool took six points off Palace last season. Mohamed Salah scored a quick-fire double in a 7-0 win at Selhurst Park before a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture in which Sadio Mane bagged a brace.
