Liverpool v Stoke City (1230 BST, Sky Sports Main Event)

Saturday's early kick-off sees Liverpool welcome Stoke City to Anfield with the visitors still clinging on to the slight hope of Premier League survival.

The Potters sit four points adrift of safety in 19th, with four teams above them all having an extra game to play.

With just nine points left to play for, time is running out for Paul Lambert's men to close the gap and avoid dropping down to the Sky Bet Championship.

It's a tough ask away at Anfield, but they can take confidence in the fact that Liverpool's focus will be on their Champions League semi-final second leg clash away at Roma.

The Reds looked comfortable at 5-0 up, but two late goals see the aggregate score of 5-2, giving Roma a chance of progression with their away goals.

That should signal changes made by Jurgen Klopp, and the influential trio of Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah are set to be split apart for the weekend.

Danny Ings should be given a start, and he can be found at even-money in most places to find the net anytime.

For Stoke, it could be an opportunity for them to pick up an unlikely point, with Liverpool being held to a draw by doomed West Brom last weekend, again having made changes.

Xherdan Shaqiri sits as Stoke's top scorer this season with seven. He'll be looking to capitalise on an altered Liverpool defence by adding to his tally.

Shaqiri is a best price of 9/2 to strike anytime, which seems decent enough value given the circumstances.

Regardless of the changes, I'd still be looking at Liverpool to get the job done against struggling Stoke.

The likes of Ings will be aiming to seize the limited opportunities that have been presented to him this season, whilst there is still the strength within the squad required to pick up the points.

Score prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Stoke City (Sky Bet odds: 15/2) (Tom Carnduff)

Best bet: Xherdan Shaqiri to score anytime at 9/2

Alternative bet: Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals at 23/20

Burnley v Brighton and Hove Albion (1500 BST)

Burnley could be set for a European tour after Southampton's elimination from the FA Cup.

Provided Chelsea finish in the top-five, Sean Dyche's men will be lining up in the Europa League next season should they finish no lower than seventh, which they are looking incredibly likely to do.

Before that though, there are still three Premier League games to play and they welcome lower mid-table Brighton to Turf Moor.

The Clarets' five-game winning run was ended by Chelsea last week, and they followed that up by picking up a point away at Stoke.

They will take further confidence in Brighton's away form, with Chris Hughton's men losing their last three away in all competitions.

They have struggled on their travels this season, winning just two away from the Amex Stadium and they'll face a tough task to pick up a win here.

With that in mind, Burnley to win at the 23/20 mark seems a terrific price given their current situation.

Victory will all-but-secure a spot in Europe next season and Dyche's side will be eager to wrap that up in front of their home fans.

Six of Burnley's last seven at home have seen both teams scoring, with the last three at Turf Moor having over 2.5 goals.

Combining goals with a Burnley victory gives value. Backing the hosts to win with over 2.5 goals in the match puts the price at 13/4, and that is my best bet for the game.

Ashley Barnes sits as the joint-top scorer for Burnley this season with ten in all competitions. He's enjoying a fantastic run of form at the moment, scoring six goals in his last eight Premier League appearances.

Despite that run of form, Barnes can still be found at a price of 11/5 to score anytime, which looks incredibly tempting for an alternative bet.

Score prediction: Burnley 2-1 Brighton (Sky Bet odds: 17/2) (Tom Carnduff)

Best bet: Burnley to win and over 2.5 goals in the match at 13/4

Alternative bet: Ashley Barnes to score anytime at 11/5

Crystal Palace v Leicester City (1500 BST)

Crystal Palace could all-but-secure Premier League survival if they secure victory over Leicester City at Selhust Park.

Roy Hodgson's side are six points clear of 18th-placed Southampton, and can ensure another season in the top-flight by winning and hoping Saints fail to pick up anything against Bournemouth.

These two sides are in decent enough form, sitting mid-table in the form charts.

The concern for Palace will be that they have picked up just four points from their last possible 15 at home, although they did beat Brighton the last time they played in front of their fans.

Leicester have travelled well in recent weeks, winning two of their last three away from home. Their form sees them sitting sixth in the away form chart.

Both sides drew 0-0 last time out, but there were goals in the weeks prior to that and there could potentially be more goals here.

Add in the fact that there have been three or more goals in the last three encounters between these two and it's easy to see why goals are a tempting avenue to explore.

The last three games at Palace have seen over 2.5 goals, whereas five of Leicester's last six away from home have seen the same amount.

Over 2.5 goals can be found around the 4/5 mark.

There could be better value in backing individual goalscorers, and for me I'm looking towards Luka Milivojevic.

The midfielder has enjoyed a good season in front of goal, scoring 10 times in the Premier League.

He is also Palace's set-piece man, and the fact that Wilfred Ndidi sits second in the Premier League 'fouls' charts could present them with dangerous scoring opportunities.

Milivojevic can be found at a best price of 10/3 to find the net anytime on Saturday, with 10/1 the price if you want to back him to score first.

At 10/3, backing Milivojevic to score anytime would be one of my best bets for this encounter.

The Serbian is also Crystal Palace's most carded player with seven yellows.

Mike Dean, who has accumulated an average of 40 booking points per game this season, takes charge of this match and it is worth backing Milivojevic to also be shown a card at 5/2.

Score prediction: Crystal Palace 2-2 Leicester City (Sky Bet odds: 12/1) (Tom Carnduff)

Best bet: Luka Milivojevic to be shown a card at 5/2

Alternative bet: Luka Milivojevic to score anytime at 10/3
