Jurgen Klopp’s side have found their goalscoring form, even if there are real vulnerabilities at the back, and downed Tottenham in dramatic fashion last time out to move up to fifth in the table. Champions League football looks beyond them, even with this late-season charge.
Fulham were admirable in defeat to Manchester City, losing 2-1 at Craven Cottage, and they are still well-placed for a top-half finish despite their form dipping somewhat.

Liverpool vs Fulham team news
Klopp’s big decisions come up front, with Luis Diaz impressing as he started against Spurs. However, Jota continued his goalscoring form as he fired home the winner off the bench, and will be pushing for a return to the starting lineup.
There are not believed to be any fresh injury concerns for the Reds, with Roberto Firmino, Naby Keita and Stefan Bajcetic among those still out.
Marco Silva has described Willian’s injury as “not really serious” so he could be involved at Anfield, but Tim Ream and Andreas Pereira are out for the rest of the season in a double blow to Fulham.
Aleksandar Mitrovic remains suspended, as he continues to serve his eight-match ban for his conduct when sent-off in the FA Cup against Manchester United.
Big blow: Andreas Pereira will not play again this season
/ PALiverpool vs Fulham prediction
Goals seem a pretty safe bet when it comes to Liverpool at the moment, with their forward line clicking into gear but the defence still extremely vulnerable.
Fulham will get their chances to exploit that, but are unlikely to be able to keep the hosts quiet at the other end.
Liverpool to win, 3-1.
