Liverpool have a contextual advantage at Anfield and recently observed attacking ability, but the matchup remains conditional: the Reds have conceded two goals in each of their last two league matches, while availability and the lineup remain incompletely known.
Read the full analysisLiverpool have a contextual advantage at Anfield and recently observed attacking ability, but the matchup remains conditional: the Reds have conceded two goals in each of their last two league matches, while availability and the lineup remain incompletely known. The decisive limitation is the lack of reliable data on Fulham, the goalkeepers, and the starters on September 12.
Liverpool are coming off two 2-2 league draws: at Newcastle on August 23, then at home against Nottingham Forest on August 29. These matches show two goals scored and two conceded each time, with an ability to come back but also exposure to quick attacks and situations in the box.
Fulham lost 1-0 at Sunderland on August 30, a result confirmed by Fulham FC, and its 3-2 defeat against Chelsea on August 24 is only probable in the available data. Liverpool are hosting after their latest match at Anfield, while Fulham are returning from an away game; the sporting effect of this difference has not been quantified.
No reliable comparison of xG, shots, or pressing is retained.
The most recent documented encounter is Fulham 2-2 Liverpool, on 4 January 2026 at Craven Cottage, in the 2025/26 season. The report notably mentions Fulham’s late equalizer by Harrison Reed after goals from Harry Wilson, Florian Wirtz and Cody Gakpo.
This precedent has limited prédictive relevance, as the squads, coach and context may have changed; it does not constitute an independent signal.
As of September 3, Liverpool had confirmed the long-term absence of Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitike, with no confirmed return date. Federico Chiesa was expected to resume training later in September, Joe Gomez the following week, and Giovanni Leoni with the group during the next international break.
No Liverpool player was announced as suspended in this publication. For Fulham, no complete, dated official list of injured or suspended players is available.
The attribution of Liverpool's page to Andoni Iraola, contradicting earlier articles attributing the team to Arne Slot, calls for caution when interpreting the conference; the published medical status remains usable.
Liverpool may look to impose territorial pressure at Anfield and progress down the flanks, as with the goal built by Gakpo, Isak, Wirtz and Muñoz against Nottingham Forest. The opposing scenario is Fulham taking advantage of transitions, crosses or set pieces if Liverpool loses control of its recovery runs; however, Fulham's ability to do this is not sufficiently documented before the match.
The standings as of September 5 are unknown, and there is no first-leg score since the match corresponds to the 4e matchday.
