Hello and welcome to LIVE updates of the final weekend showdown between Liverpool and Crystal Palace in front of 10,000 fans at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp’s men have a top-four finish firmly in their sights and know a victory - assuming Leicester don’t hit a cricket score against Spurs - will conclude a disappointing season on a relative high. Palace are aiming to throw a spanner in the works in what is boss Roy Hodgson’s final match at the helm. Kick off 16.00 BST.
