The Reds Liverpool experienced an unstable period when Klopp left office last season and the new coach Slot took office. However, after Slot took office, he did not choose to make major adjustments to the lineup, but chose to follow the main lineup of the Klopp era, which allowed Liverpool to make a smooth transition. In the end, Liverpool stood out in the Premier League, won the championship, and achieved the second Premier League championship in team history, thus surpassing the number of champions in England's top league, becoming the number of champions in England, becoming the number one giant in England.

Liverpool has become a team in the transfer market this summer. During the entire transfer period, Liverpool spent more than 300 million euros to sign. Among them, the most sensational transfer in European football was German star Wilz transferred from Leverkusen for 125 million euros, which made fans very excited. In addition, Flynnon, Ekitic, Kolkz and other players came to Anfield one after another. Liverpool's team's value reached 1.08 billion euros. This is not over yet. Liverpool is still interested in signing Isak.

In contrast, Crystal Palace has been hovering in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League. Last season, Crystal Palace changed its coach in the middle of last season. Oliver Glasner, who once led Frankfurt to win the UEFA Cup championship, took office and eventually led Crystal Palace to successfully relegate and defeated Manchester City in the FA Cup final to win the championship. In the transfer market this summer, Crystal Palace's lineup has not changed significantly, and the players remain relatively stable. The team's value is 456 million euros.

Judging from the warm-up match this summer, Liverpool achieved 4 wins and 1 loss. Except for losing to AC Milan, they maintained a complete victory in the other games, scoring 15 goals and conceding 7 goals. New player Wilz and Ekitic are actively integrating into Liverpool's offensive system. In contrast, Crystal Palace has achieved 3 wins and 2 losses in the last five warm-up matches, scoring 10 goals and conceding 6 goals.

Judging from the historical confrontation records of the two teams, in the past 10 matches, Liverpool achieved 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, with an absolute advantage. In the last season of Liverpool's championship season, they played against Crystal Palace in two rounds, 1-1 at home and 1-0 away. In the 2023/24 season, Liverpool lost 0-1 at home. In the last 6 matches, Crystal Palace only lost 1 goal to Liverpool in the game, which shows that Crystal Palace's defense is very strong.

Liverpool relies on the crazy buying of people in the transfer market this summer. The team's lineup is unprecedentedly strong and is the biggest favorite team to win the Premier League championship in the new season. Slot successfully won the championship in his first season in office, and the team's morale is in full swing. This game is an appetizer for the new season. Premier League fans all over the world are focusing on this Community Shield Final. However, for Liverpool fans, this game is more worrying. Winning is important, but past data shows that it is difficult for the teams that won the Community Shield Cup to win the Premier League that season, so there are variables in this game. Crystal Palace's defensive counterattack tactics have been mastered to perfection, and there is a possibility of an uproar in this game.
