After last week’s Merseyside Derby against Everton got postponed, Liverpool is back in Premier League action, sitting pretty at the top of the table. With Manchester City and Arsenal dropping points, the Reds have a chance to pull even further ahead. But watch out—Chelsea’s hot streak has them in second place, cutting Liverpool’s lead to just four points, which adds a bit of pressure on their game in hand.
Arne Slot’s squad is feeling refreshed after their wild 3-3 draw with Newcastle and a tough 1-0 win over Girona in the Champions League. Back at Anfield, Liverpool will aim to keep their home dominance alive, having won 12 of their last 13 games there, with eight clean sheets to boot.
Fulham, coming off a 1-1 draw with Arsenal, could shake things up in the title race again. The Cottagers are one of the last four teams to beat Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League since March 2021, but that’s their only win in the last 14 matchups with the Reds.
Confidence is high in Marco Silva’s camp, with their 23 points after 15 games marking their second-best Premier League start ever, just behind the 25 points they snagged in the 2003/04 season. However, only nine of those points have come on the road, and Silva’s record against Liverpool (one win in 11 games) isn’t exactly reassuring.
Liverpool win: 1/3 – 75%
Draw: 26/5 – 16.1%
Fulham win: 17/2 – 10.5%
Liverpool to win: 1/3

Trent Alexander-Arnold was on fire against Newcastle with two assists, and Liverpool hasn’t lost in the last 17 Premier League games where he’s scored or assisted. Keep an eye on Raúl Jiménez for Fulham—he’s netted six goals this season, all of which have opened the scoring, and he’ll be gunning for a third career goal against Liverpool.
Hot Stat: Liverpool has lost just one of their last 96 Premier League matches in which they’ve led at any point.
