Fulham vs Liverpool: Premier League Preview, Team News & Key Stats

Liverpool arrive at Craven Cottage sitting top of the Premier League, needing 13 points from their remaining eight games to secure a potential record-equalling 20th league title. Their away form has been formidable, remaining unbeaten in 17 Premier League away matches (W10, D7) since April 2024. Arne Slot's side aims to join a select group of teams to complete an entire top-flight season unbeaten away from home.

Fulham, positioned 9th, have had mixed results recently, losing three of their last five league games. However, they seek consecutive home league wins for the first time since March 2024, having beaten Spurs 2-0 in their last outing at Craven Cottage. Historically, Fulham have struggled against Liverpool, winning only 13 of their 78 encounters. Their last home win against the Reds was back in December 2011.

An interesting statistic highlights Fulham's scoring patterns at home: only two of their 53 Premier League goals at Craven Cottage since the start of last season have come from outside the box. Conversely, Liverpool boast a high away scoring rate (2.53 goals per game), matching their best in a top-flight season. Mohamed Salah has been pivotal in recent away games, scoring or assisting all eight of Liverpool's goals in their last four league matches on the road.
