On VAR's decison not to award Marc Guehi a penalty after Van Djik grabbed his arm inside the box:
He’s grabbed [Marc] Guehi’s hand. That could quite easily have got to him. Marc Guehi doesn’t react like that, I really think that’s a penalty.
Crystal Palace 0-1 Liverpool
Eddie Nketiah is also into the book and it's all getting a bit chaotic.
Oh no! Alisson goes to make a routine clearance and immediately sits down. He is absolutely fuming, he thinks he's done something.
He takes his gloves off and punches the turf. Hamstring maybe? Groin?
Crystal Palace 0-1 Liverpool
It's all got a bit feisty this and the crowd are suitably whipped up.
Will Hughes is the latest into Simon Hooper's book for a foul and Ismaila Sarr also finds himself in there for a bit of backchat.

Alisson could have caught that. Marc Guehi falls in fornt of him and he decides to punch it.
The biggest difference is the introduction of Will Hughes - he's been aggressive and he's hustled Liverpool.

The VAR did have a look at it but decided there was nothing in that. Palace and Guehi were adamant.

Alisson quickly called into action again as he punches away the corner.
Jefferson Lerma goes into the book for a collision with Kostas Tsimikas. This game has woken up a bit.

A massive chant of Will Hughes name from the Palace crowd after his driving run ends with Eze having a shot saved by Alisson.
Crystal Palace 0-1 Liverpool
That's a huge chance for Crystal Palace! Jean-Philippe Mateta has made such a difference since coming on and he tees it up really well for Eberechi Eze, who is completely unmarked, but the England forward's shot is really well saved by Alisson.

Everyone seems to have forgotten the very special Michael Olise who could walk into any side in the world. Palace miss him immensely.

Indeed, not forgotten. But Palace have managed to hold onto the likes of Marc Guehi, Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta. It does still feel surprising to see them so low down after their brilliance at the end of last season.
Also, don't forget to put your names on your messages!

Dominik Szoboszlai has a shot from range which requires a decent save from Dean Henderson.
Liverpool know they need another here.

Nketiah is stretching for it.
By doing so he isn't able to divert it far enough away from Alisson.
Nketiah's chance has definitely lifted them and lifted the crowd. Liverpool are in risk of not finishing this game off.
Crystal Palace 0-1 Liverpool
That is a huge chance for Crystal Palace and at just 1-0 it shows how quickly things could turn on their head.
Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eddie Nketiah link up well but the latter's shot is saved well by Alisson.

Mateta is up front with Nketiah and there's an attacking feel to this team now.

Well on another day Diogo Jota might have had a hat-trick.

Everton have lost just three of their last 20 Premier League home games against Newcastle (W12 D5), though two of those defeats have come across their last four such meetings (W2).
Newcastle have won five of their last eight Premier League meetings with Everton (D1 L2), as many as in their previous 24 against them (D6 L13). However, they failed to win either meeting with the Toffees last term (D1 L1).
After losing their first four Premier League matches this season, Everton have picked up four points in their last two games (W1 D1). The Toffees are looking for consecutive wins for the first time since April.
Newcastle United have won 11 points in their six Premier League games this season (W3 D2 L1), their most at this stage of a top-flight season since 2011-12 (12) and Eddie Howe’s best start to a league season since 2010-11 in League One with Bournemouth (11 points).
Everton have won six of their last eight Premier League matches at Goodison Park (L2). Since the first game in this run on April 6, the Toffees have won more home points than any other Premier League side (18).
Only Aston Villa and Manchester City (7) have picked up more points from losing positions in the Premier League this season than Newcastle (5) – the Magpies have only lost two of their last seven games when conceding first (W2 D3), having lost 11 of their previous 13 games when going 1-0 down.
Since Sean Dyche’s first Premier League game in charge of Everton in February 2023, the Toffees have scored a higher percentage of their goals via set pieces than any other club (45.5%, 30/66).
Newcastle’s Bruno Guimarães has won the most fouls in the Premier League this season (24) and since his first start in March 2022 he has won 42 more fouls than anyone else (249). Since 2003-04, among players to play 5,000 Premier League minutes, the only players to win more fouls per 90 minutes than Guimarães (3) are Jack Grealish (3.8) and Wilfried Zaha (3.1).
Everton’s Ashley Young has assisted a goal in each of his last two Premier League appearances, which is as many assists as he got in his previous 117 games combined. At the age of 39, Young is the oldest player in Premier League history to assist a goal in consecutive games.
Anthony Gordon has been involved in 13 goals in 23 Premier League appearances in 2024 for Newcastle United (7 goals, 6 assists). He’s yet to score or assist against former club Everton and has one goal in his last 15 games at Goodison Park.
