Liverpool completed a difficult week with a frustrating 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace on Saturday that did little to enhance their prospects of finishing in the Premier League's top four.

Thrashed 5-2 at home by Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, Juergen Klopp's side laboured against a Palace side who well deserved their point.

Liverpool moved up a place to seventh in the table, six points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur.

Without a win in eight league games, Palace are 12th, six points above the relegation zone.

Mohamed Salah hit the woodwork for Liverpool in the second half but Palace had two gilt-edged chances in the first period with Marc Guehi heading wide and Jean-Philippe Mateta firing a shot against the crossbar.
