Premier League: 10 things to look out for this weekend

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah will face Crystal Palace this weekend. 

Salah sizes up new-look Palace defence 

Liverpool have not lost at Selhurst Park since November 2014, when Dwight Gayle opened the scoring in a 3-1 win for a side then managed by Neil Warnock. But their title challenge under Jürgen Klopp wavered last season after losing at Anfield in April to a goal from Eberechi Eze, so Arne Slot will be wary of facing a Crystal Palace team that have yet to record a victory in the Premier League this season. Fresh from his brilliant goal against Bologna in the Champions League, Mohamed Salah will be licking his lips at the prospect of facing a new-look Palace defence that has not looked convincing this season despite a 0-0 draw against Manchester United in their last home match. The Egyptian scored his 200th Liverpool goal against them in December to take his tally to eight in just 11 appearances, not to mention seven assists. Ed Aarons
