Struggling Premier League champions Liverpool will take on Fulham this Sunday, and the Reds will hope to end their wretched run of home form.
Jurgen Klopp’s side are yet to win at home in 2021, and have lost a record five games in a row at Anfield. Their most recent defeat came against Chelsea on Thursday.
Fulham, on the other hand, were beaten by Tottenham Hotspur in their last outing and will look to inflict further pain on Liverpool.
Scott Parker’s side can move out of the relegation zone if they manage to beat Liverpool and results elsewhere go their way.
Liverpool vs Fulham Head-to-head
