Fulham vs Liverpool prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2026-01-03 15:00.
[p]Both Fulham and Liverpool will be looking to return to winning ways after their respective three-game winning streaks in the Premier League ended with New Year’s Day draws. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]After one-goal victories over Burnley, Nottingham Forest and West Ham, Fulham travelled to London rivals Crystal Palace on New Year’s Day and rescued a 1-1 draw with a late equaliser. Maintaining that unbeaten record here could prove difficult for the Cottagers, who have lost 15 of their last 19 Premier League games against the reigning champions at the time (W1, D3), while head coach Marco Silva has tasted defeat in all 11 of his Premier League matches against such opposition – the highest 100% loss rate of any manager in the competition.[/p]
[p]Liverpool rounded off 2025 with wins over Brighton, Tottenham and Wolves, only to draw 0-0 in their first match of the new year with Leeds at Anfield. That result still extended the Reds’ unbeaten run to eight games (W5, D3), a sequence which includes three victories in their last four away matches (D1). Arne Slot’s men look to have banished their struggles in the capital, following up a five-match Premier League losing streak in London with successive victories, while they’ve now scored in each of their last 20 such fixtures irrespective of the result.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Fulham had won just one of the last 15 H2Hs (D4, L10) before winning last season’s corresponding fixture 3-2, but last tasted victory in back-to-back home games against Liverpool in May 2007.[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Fulham have scored exactly once in five of their last six matches.[/p]
[p]Just two of Fulham’s last seven home games saw both teams score.[/p]
[p]Only one of Liverpool’s last seven matches was decided by a 2+ goal margin.[/p]
[p]Six of Liverpool’s last seven league away games have produced more than 2.5 goals.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Winger Kevin is yet to register a Premier League goal or assist during his debut campaign for Fulham, but that duck will likely be broken at Craven Cottage at some point as 13 of his 18 career strikes have come in home games. Liverpool will be hoping that Ryan Gravenberch can get on the scoresheet here, as his eight goals for the Reds have all contributed to wins, while three of his four this season have served as the match opener. [/p]
[p]Josh King missed Fulham’s game against Palace, while Kenny Tete limped off early in the second half at Selhurst Park. Liverpool seem to have come through their match with Leeds unscathed.[/p]
