Jurgen Klopp has played down the idea of Liverpool beating Crystal Palace 7-0 once again at Selhurst Park this weekend, with the Reds back in the capital on Sunday afternoon.

Klopp is right to be making such comments and there is surely next to no chance we'll see another 7-0 scoreline here.

Clearly, it's a different game and a tough one at that, so the Reds must be ready.
