Liverpool will be looking to wrap up the Premier League title in style by lifting the trophy with a win in front of their home fans at Anfield against Crystal Palace on Sunday, one of the most celebrated teams in England in recent weeks due to their FA Cup triumph.
Liverpool need to win to break losing streak
After breaking several positive records in a historic Premier League season, Liverpool now need to give the fans an answer after becoming the first championship club not to win any of their next three games since winning the title.
Everything pointed to the Reds losing to an extremely well-organized and very competitive Chelsea side in search of a place in the next Champions League. On the other hand, many fans were frustrated by the defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion, who pulled off an incredible 2-2 comeback in their quest for Europe.

Crystal Palace will be a big challenger at Wembley
As mentioned earlier, Crystal Palace are also in a festive mood and will certainly have thousands of fans lining the streets after their title win over Manchester City at Wembley. Oliver Glasner's champions had to stop the party on Tuesday with the first team against Wolverhampton.
