Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is wary facing Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace today.

In his match programme notes, Klopp wrote: I would like to offer a warm welcome to Anfield to Oliver Glasner and the players, staff and directors of Crystal Palace.

"Oliver is someone whose work I know pretty well as he is a manager who did a really good job in the Bundesliga with Wolfsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt before moving to Palace earlier this year.

Replacing a club legend like Roy Hodgson would not be easy for anyone but Oliver's record, reputation and ability make him a wise choice, I would say. I do not know how well known he was in England before he came to the Premier League, but his CV speaks for itself and it is even decorated with a Europa League, which was won a couple of seasons back with Frankfurt.

Oliver has not been in this country for too long but already you can see his methods and his work starting to show at Palace. For this reason and many more besides, not least the quality of their players, we should prepare for a proper test today as clearly one is coming."
