Match Preview:
Liverpool generated almost two Expected Goals against the newly-promoted Whites but could not break down Daniel Farke's defence for neither love nor money, raising fresh questions about their Champions League credentials. The Reds remain in control of their UCL destiny in fourth place in the Premier League table, but they missed the opportunity to build up a healthy lead over Chelsea and Manchester United, who are only three points adrift of the Merseyside mammoths.

However, for a side that lost nine of their 12 games during a two-month period earlier in the season, eight matches unbeaten is a marked improvement, even if the bar has been drastically lowered for Liverpool in 2025-26. The Reds now go in search of a fourth win from their last five away matches across all competitions, and they have scored at least twice in five of their last seven on the road, the exceptions coming against Manchester City and Inter Milan.

Slot and Marco Silva can empathise over winning runs ending on New Year's Day, as the latter's Fulham side had taken down Burnley, Nottingham Forest and West Ham United in three straight Premier League games before pitting their wits against Palace.

Jean-Philippe Mateta's strike almost condemned the Cottagers to a London derby defeat, but the long-serving Tom Cairney came up with a crisp leveller in the final 10 minutes to at least preserve Fulham's unbeaten run for a little while longer.

However, Fulham took four points from their two meetings with Liverpool last season, following up a 2-2 Anfield draw with a 3-2 Craven Cottage success, three weeks before the Reds were crowned champions.

Match Prediction: Fulham 1-1 Liverpool
Clashes between Fulham and Liverpool tend to be entertaining watches for the neutrals, as there have been a staggering 20 goals netted in the last four Premier League matches between these two clubs. However, Thursday night fatigue means that a more low-key affair is in store this weekend, when Silva's well-drilled men have our vote to hold Slot's side to a low-scoring draw.
