# Defender set for return against Liverpool

Crystal Palace face Liverpool [this](https://www.croydonadvertiser.co.uk/Eagles-boosted-defender-return-Liverpool-game/story-28127328-detail/story.html) weekend and Alan Pardew’s men will be delighted by the return of Senegalese defender Pape Souare.

In his pre-match press conference, Pardew confirmed that Souare was back in full training and is raring to go against Liverpool on Sunday. He had missed Palace’s 0-0 draw against Manchester United last weekend, with natural right-back Martin Kelly having to shift across to the left side of defence.

The left-sided defender for Palace joined the club earlier this year from Lille. He didn’t make a great entrance to Premier League football, with a few Palace fans questioning the 25-year-old’s capability of playing for the club.

However, he has come on leaps and bounds this season and his upturn in form has been a major contributing factor as to why Palace have done so well this season in the Premier League.
