Liverpool vs Fulham Prediction 11 April 2026
🔊 On April 11, in the 32nd round of the Premier League, teams vying for European competition spots will clash. Liverpool are enduring a rough patch: three consecutive defeats, an exit from the FA Cup, and a setback in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals. Fulham are in noticeably better form but have struggled on the road this season and haven't won at Anfield since 2021. The favorite is clear, but this is precisely the scenario where an underdog victory wouldn't be a major surprise.
Head-to-Head
📊 Over the last five encounters, the teams are evenly matched with one win each and three draws. This season at Craven Cottage, the match ended in a 2-2 draw. It seemed Cody Gakpo's late goal would secure Liverpool the victory, but Harrison Reed stunned everyone with a remarkable long-distance strike in the 97th minute. Notably, both teams have found the net in their last four head-to-heads, with the total goals exceeding three each time.
Head-to-head statistics Liverpool - Fulham
Liverpool Team Overview
Arne Slot's side currently sit in fifth place with 49 points, but their form has been dreadful. As spring reaches its midpoint, the Reds have yet to secure a Premier League victory since early March, despite not facing any top-10 teams during this stretch. However, there's a silver lining: the Scousers have avoided defeat at Anfield in 8 of their last 9 Premier League matches. The support from the home crowd remains a significant advantage.
The last three matches were all on the road, and Liverpool suffered defeats in each: against Brighton (1-2) in the Premier League, Manchester City (0-4) in the FA Cup, and PSG (0-2) in the Champions League. In Paris, the Reds delivered one of their poorest performances under Arne Slot's leadership. The switch to a five-man defense failed to cover up the defensive frailties. The opposition continuously found dangerous opportunities, while Liverpool held possession for only 26% of the match and managed a meager 0.26 xG, failing to register a single shot on target.

Fulham Team Overview
The "Cottagers" currently sit in ninth place with 44 points after 31 matches. While not in top form, they are certainly performing better than Liverpool. Fulham have claimed four victories in their last seven matches across all competitions, and crucially, they remain unbeaten on the road. However, their away form over the entire season leaves much to be desired, with only 15 points from 15 away games-ranking them 17th in the league.
Fulham's last match before the international break was at home. Marco Silva's side conceded first to Burnley, but quickly bounced back to score three times after the 65th minute. The winning goal came from Harry Wilson, who has been Fulham's standout player this season (11 goals and 7 assists). The team created four significant chances with an xG of 3.22, suggesting they could have scored more than three goals.

Latest news
Liverpool
🎙 Arne Slot admitted to a complete failure in France: “Reflecting on the entire match, I think we were fortunate to lose only 0-2. Luck wasn't on our side with the first goal, but our opponents created plenty of chances afterwards. It's crucial that we still have a chance going into the home leg. Everyone knows the impact Anfield can have. PSG dominated possession and played incredibly fast. We tried pressing high up the pitch several times, and it worked occasionally, but often they bypassed our press.”
❌ Alisson Becker (muscle), Conor Bradley (knee), Giovanni Leone (knee), Wataru Endo (ankle), and Stefan Bajcetic (hamstring) will not play. Alexander Isak has returned after a three-month break but is unlikely to start. Mohamed Salah was on the bench against PSG and is expected to be in the starting lineup. Arne Slot will likely revert to his usual back four formation.
Fulham
🎙 Marco Silva on the race for European competition: "We've positioned ourselves in a spot where we can fight for something that's incredibly challenging but possible to achieve. We wanted to be in this race. The significance of each game is now greater than ever because we only have seven matches left. As you can imagine, our motivation is at its peak. We've fought hard to be in this position."
❌ Kevin, who underwent leg surgery, will definitely not play. Additionally, according to Marco Silva, Kenny Tete and Harrison Reed will miss Saturday's game due to injuries. The list of absentees is short but significant.
🟨 Yellow Card Prediction
The match referee is Anthony Taylor. In this Premier League season, he has officiated 24 games, handing out 96 yellow cards, averaging 4 per match. At home, Liverpool averages 1.2 bookings per game, while Fulham receives about 2.47 on the road. Notably, in 5 of their last 6 head-to-head encounters, the Cottagers have come out on top in terms of yellow cards, and the season averages suggest this trend could continue. Bet on Fulham to win the yellow card battle.
⚽ Goal Prediction
These teams have a knack for high-scoring games, with the over 2.5 goals mark being surpassed in 6 of their last 7 matches, often with room to spare. Liverpool might struggle physically after their Champions League match, with an eye on the upcoming return leg against PSG, which could open up opportunities for Fulham. Expect an exciting match that will test both defenses significantly.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Liverpool averages 5.93 corners per game at Anfield. Fulham, not content to sit back away from home, earns around 4.1 corners per match. Based on these statistics and our expectations for the match, betting on over 9.5 total corners seems promising. This bet has hit in 6 of Fulham's last 7 games.
🚀 Player Stats Bet
Mohamed Salah is expected to return to the starting lineup after resting against PSG. The Egyptian boasts decent stats against Fulham: 4 goals and 2 assists in 10 appearances. Although his performance has dipped compared to his sensational previous season, he still has a 10+10 tally across all competitions. With his time at Anfield winding down, every match is a special motivation. Bet on Salah to score or assist at odds of 1.63*.
😱 Risky Bet
In their last game before the international break against Brighton (1-2), Liverpool looked vulnerable post-Champions League. Arne Slot's side was physically drained and performed poorly. A similar scenario could unfold at Anfield this weekend. Given how challenging Fulham have been for the Reds in recent years, a risky but potential play is a Fulham victory. Odds start at 5.00*.
👀 If the Match Doesn't Go as Planned
Fatigue from European fixtures is a significant factor. Liverpool played a tough match in Paris on Tuesday. If the Reds start sluggishly and fail to establish dominance in the first half, Arne Slot might need to rest key players for the PSG return leg, possibly bringing on Isak, who is not yet in form. In such a scenario, live odds on Fulham not losing could be appealing. The Cottagers are unlikely to tire and could take points from Liverpool for the third consecutive time.
*Odds are approximate and may vary across different bookmakers.
Editorial Prediction
Liverpool have suffered three consecutive defeats and find themselves in a precarious situation. On one hand, there’s still a slim chance of reaching the Champions League semi-finals, but on the other, they can't afford to ease up in the Premier League, as missing out on a top-five spot would be a significant setback. The Reds are in desperate need of a win, yet concerns about their physical condition loom large.
Fulham have been consistent and regularly pose challenges for Arne Slot's side, so there's no reason to expect an easy victory for the hosts. In fact, our editorial team believes Liverpool will drop points once again. A high-scoring draw, likely ending 2-2, seems the most plausible outcome, which is why we recommend betting on both teams to score. This bet has come through in Liverpool's last five home Premier League matches, as well as in the last seven consecutive head-to-head encounters between these teams.
