Liverpool vs Fulham Preview – prediction, team news, lineups | Premier League 2026-27

Two of the last four outings between these clubs have ended in a draw!

Liverpool FC are now ready to shift their focus back on the English Premier League 2026-27 campaign. They are gearing up to have face Fulham FC at Anfield.

The Reds might be unbeaten in their first three games of the English top division this season, but they have only managed one win. Two of their matches have ended in a draw. They are coming after their 2-1 win against Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League and will now be looking to use this momentum in the EPL.

Andoni Iraola’s men have showed a drastic improvement in defence over their last two games and it will now be interesting to see them against the Cottagers. Being at home will be a big advantage for Liverpool, but it surely will not be an easy task.

The Alvaro Arbeloa-led side have faced consecutive defeats in their first three fixtures of the Premier League 2026-27 season. They only have one win to their name this season, that too came against AFC Wimbledon in the Carabao Cup.

Fulham put up a strong fight against Crystal Palace in their last league outin, but it was not enough and they lost 2-3. They must now repeat the mistakes in the backline or otherwise it will only be easier for the Reds.
