- Venue: Anfield
Liverpool aims to sustain their Premier League title aspirations by securing a win when they welcome Fulham on Sunday afternoon.
Last season, the hosts were not part of the title race, but this year, they are just two points away from the top. Jürgen Klopp’s team was eager to return to victory against LASK in the Europa League in midweek following their 0-0 draw with Man City. Despite not having Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Joël Matip in the starting lineup, the Reds triumphed 4-0, sending a stern warning to Fulham.
Last season, the visiting team delivered a remarkable performance, securing a position in the top half of the Premier League table for the first time since 2012 and surpassing Chelsea. However, Marco Silva’s team hasn’t been able to maintain that momentum this season, although they hold a safe ten-point lead over the relegation zone. Given Fulham’s difficulty in scoring this season, the recent 3:2 victory against Wolves will significantly boost their morale ahead of this weekend’s journey to Anfield, one of the most intimidating stadiums in the Premier League.
Liverpool vs Fulham Betting Tips: Liverpool and Over 2.5 goals
Liverpool’s attack has found its rhythm this season, scoring 27 goals in their last eleven matches and securing victories in seven. However, there is still much room for improvement in their defense. Jurgen Klopp’s team managed to prevent the opposition from scoring only in two of their last six games, with an average of one goal conceded per game. Furthermore, only two games ended with less than 2.5 goals in total.
Fulham managed to break through Wolverhampton’s defence in their last match and have scored in their past three away games. Therefore, even if they don’t win, the Cottagers should be able to score against Liverpool this weekend.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Liverpool vs Fulham prediction: 2-1

Liverpool team news
Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp is concerned about the fitness of his first-choice goalkeeper, Alisson, who sustained a hamstring injury in last weekend’s match against Manchester City.
The Brazilian goalkeeper missed the victory over LASK in the last match and his participation in this weekend’s game against Fulham is still uncertain.
Diego Jota with a leg injury, Stefan Bajcetic with a calf injury, Thiago Alcantara with a hip injury, and Andrew Robertson with a shoulder injury are also included in the Reds’ injury list.

Fulham team news
After missing the win over Wolves due to a suspension, midfielder Joao Palhinha will be available for Fulham’s boss Marco Silva this weekend.
Injuries are expected to prevent Issa Diop (foot), Rodrigo Muniz (knee), Adama Traore (hamstring), and Tyrese Francois (knock) from participating in this weekend’s trip to Liverpool.
After scoring his first Premier League goal for the visiting team last time, Alex Iwobi will join forces again in the final third with Willian and Raúl Jiménez, who have collectively scored four goals this season.
