Origi gets the nod ahead of Daniel Sturridge, who takes a place on the bench alongside the misfiring Christian Benteke and Philippe Coutinho. Roberto Firmino and Adam Lallana are tasked with supporting the young Belgian striker.
Emmanuel Adebayor replaces the injured Connor Wickham in the Palace attack. Alex McCarthy is handed a rare start in goal, with current No.1 Wayne Hennessey sidelined.
Liverpool can climb into seventh with victory, while Palace are hoping to end a run of 11 games without a league win.
Crystal Palace: McCarthy; Ward, Dann, Delaney, Souare; Zaha, Jedinak (c), Cabaye, Ledley, Bolasie; Adebayor… Subs: Speroni, Kelly, Lee, Mutch, Sako, Chamakh, Gayle.
