Liverpool vs Fulham — Premier League Preview

Date: Saturday, 12 September 2026
Kick-off: 3:00 PM BST / 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Anfield
Competition: Premier League, Matchweek 4

Liverpool come into the game after a 2–0 win over Ipswich and a 2–1 Champions League victory against Atlético Madrid. Alexander Isak has started strongly, scoring twice against Ipswich, and will be one of the main threats again.

Fulham have had a difficult league start, losing all three of their opening matches, although two of those defeats were by a single goal. Josh King has been a bright spot, scoring twice in the league.

Team news

Liverpool are without Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni, Hugo Ekitike, Joe Gomez and Federico Chiesa. Cody Gakpo is doubtful, while Bradley Barcola is expected to be available after suffering cramps against Atlético.

Fulham are missing Tom Cairney and Luc De Fougerolles.

Head-to-head

Liverpool have an excellent home record against Fulham, losing just two of their last 33 league meetings at Anfield. They also won the most recent meeting 2–0 in April.

Prediction

Liverpool have the stronger squad, home advantage and considerably better current momentum. Fulham could cause problems on the counter, but Liverpool should have enough attacking quality.

Prediction: Liverpool 2–1 Fulham 🔴⚪
