    Liverpool Team Overview

    Andoni Iraola's side have had a mixed start to the season, though they are gradually finding their rhythm. In their opening matches, the Merseysiders were badly exposed defensively, twice letting winning positions slip to draw 2-2 against Newcastle and 2-2 against Nottingham Forest. Their first league win only came in the third round, away at Ipswich Town (2-0), where a pragmatic approach helped them keep a clean sheet under pressing.

    Iraola managed to find the right tactical balance, and this week the team produced an important result in Europe. In the Champions League, Liverpool hosted Atlético Madrid at Anfield. The Merseysiders played aggressively, controlled the midfield and came from behind to win 2-1, with goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister, as well as an impressive performance from Barcelona loanee Ronald Araújo. The result suggested that Liverpool are capable of correcting their early-season mistakes and re-establishing themselves as a difficult side to beat.

    Fulham Team Overview

    In their first three Premier League matches, Fulham's best result was a frustrating home defeat to Crystal Palace, 2-3. That match at Craven Cottage came close to yielding points, with goals from Josh King and Cesar Palacios, but the Londoners were badly let down by a lack of creativity and defensive reliability in the second half. Their other two league fixtures also ended in defeat - a derby loss to Chelsea (2-3) and an away defeat at Sunderland (0-1).

    Álvaro Arbeloa found a partial solution to the situation and got the attack functioning in a cup tie. At the end of August the team produced a real attacking display, beating Wimbledon 3-0 in the second round of the League Cup. The forwards played with confidence and took complete control of the match, but the subsequent failures in the Premier League made clear that the deep-rooted problems in the Londoners' defensive line have not gone away and require urgent tactical adjustments.

    Latest news

    Liverpool

    ❌ Liverpool's injury list is extensive, with Federico Chiesa, Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitike all unavailable to the coaching staff. Bradley Barcola, Cody Gakpo, Milos Kerkez and Joe Gomez are all doubts.

    🔁 Update - 12 September, 06:15 UTC:

    • Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola said at his pre-match press conference that Bradley Barcola was substituted in the Champions League match against Atlético due to cramp and that there is no serious injury. The same applies to Milos Kerkez. Both players will be available.

    Fulham

    ❗️ Fulham are heading into the start of the season without many injury concerns. The squad is almost fully available. The only absentee is 35-year-old captain Tom Cairney, who picked up an injury during pre-season.

    Predicted Lineups

    📋 Liverpool predicted starting XI: Alisson - Araujo, Jacquet, van Dijk, Kerkez - Szoboszlai, McAllister, Wirtz - Muñoz, Ngumoha, Isak.

    📋 Fulham predicted starting XI: Leno - Robinson, Bassey, Andersen, Castagne - Berg, Charles, King - Iwobi, Garcia, Bobb.

    ⚽ Goals Prediction

    Fulham have lost all three of their opening Premier League matches this season, conceding 8 goals in the process - an average of 2.67 per game. Their defence has been making regular errors, which will be a critical factor at Anfield. Liverpool, under Andoní Iraola, are in excellent form. In a recent Champions League match they beat Atlético Madrid 2-1. At home, Liverpool score freely - in 5 of their last 7 Premier League matches at Anfield, the total went over 2.5. Here we're taking Liverpool Team Total - Over 1.5 at 1.45*.

    🚩 Corner Kick Prediction

    Liverpool dominate possession at home, averaging 55-60% of the ball. Their active use of the attacking flanks consistently produces a high number of corners. In their recent Champions League win over Atlético (2:1), the Merseysiders won 7 corners, and in the previous home meeting with Fulham they won 6. The statistics show that Liverpool regularly outperform Fulham in this regard. On average, matches between these two sides at Anfield produce 9.5-10.5 corners per game, with the hosts claiming the majority of set pieces. Our prediction is Total Corners - Over 9.5, priced at 1.52*.

    🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction

    Iraola's side have been disciplined at the start of the season, averaging 1.9 yellow cards per game. At home, the Merseysiders will enjoy a lot of possession, which reduces the need for tactical fouls from the hosts. The previous meeting at Anfield in April 2026 ended with zero bookings for either side. Fulham are expected to sit in a deep defensive block. This should lower the likelihood of aggressive duels and hard counter-attacks that typically generate a high number of cards. Liverpool's matches at the start of the season have averaged around 4.5 bookings in total, but given the visitors' style, we expect that figure to come in lower, and we're taking Total Yellow Cards - Under 4.5 at 1.37*.

    🚀 Player Stat Bet

    Alexander Isak is in brilliant form, scoring three goals and adding an assist across his last three matches in all competitions. The Swede scored twice inside nine minutes against Ipswich in the previous round. We're backing the Swedish striker to score at odds of 1.88*.

    😱 Risky Bet

    For those who enjoy higher-risk options, we've put together a selection combining a high-scoring game and a home win. We're confident the match will produce plenty of goals, that Liverpool will take all three points, and that Fulham will find the net as well. An appealing option here is Liverpool not to lose + total goals in the match (4 or 5). The odds on this bet are 3.5*.

    🎯 Reliable Bet

    Liverpool have gone into half-time with at least one goal on the board in every match this season. The team tend to push forward from the opening minutes - against lesser opposition this pays off, as it did against Ipswich, with goals to show for it, while against sides of a similar level it has led to goals being conceded, as in the matches against Atlético, Newcastle and Nottingham. The reliable bet here is First Half Total Goals - Over 0.5 at 1.29*.

    👀 If the match doesn't go to plan

    If Iraola's side, after a tough European fixture, are content with a narrow win and start sitting on a 1-2 goal lead, a low-scoring match becomes quite plausible. The bet for that scenario is Total Goals - Under 3.5, priced at 1.7*.

    *Odds are approximate and may vary across different bookmakers.

    ⭐️ Editorial Prediction

    Matches between these two sides have traditionally been entertaining. In 4 of their last 5 head-to-head meetings in the league, both teams scored, and the average number of goals per match exceeds three. Liverpool have some specific absences in their defensive line, which gives Fulham a good chance to catch the hosts on the counter-attack and score their customary goal, despite their general dip in form. Both sides score and concede freely, which gives reason to believe that the Both Teams to Score - Yes bet will come in. Predicted score: 3-1.

    Both Teams to Score – (Yes)
