Liverpool have claimed the prize on 16 previous occasions, while Sunday will mark Palace's first-ever appearance in the showpiece fixture.

Chiesa, who played just 104 minutes in the Premier League last term, could also look to depart in search of more first-team minutes. Winning the Premier League has marked Liverpool out as the team to beat.
