Liverpool vs Fulham Odds

Liverpool is a heavy -152 moneyline favorite at soccer betting sportsbooks. Fulham returns as a +380 underdog, while a draw is priced at +330. The O/U is set at three goals.

The Cottagers are surprisingly unbeaten across their last three meetings with Liverpool, with the reverse fixture in January ending 2-2 at Craven Cottage.

Liverpool vs Fulham Analysis

It’s been a poor campaign to Liverpool’s standards, considering they’re the reigning Premier League champions. Arne Slot’s men are fighting tooth and nail to even qualify for the Champions League next term, currently sitting five points behind fourth-place Aston Villa. The Merseysiders returned from the international break in the worst way possible, suffering a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup. On Wednesday, a UCL quarterfinal affair followed against PSG, and it was more disappointment.

The current Champions League holders cruised to a 2-0 victory at the Parc des Princes, putting Liverpool in a difficult hole heading into the return leg next week at Anfield. When it comes to the Premier League, the Reds also lost their last game, with Brighton beating them on March 21. With minimal fixtures left in the campaign, Liverpool must find their form in a hurry, or else it won’t be playing in Europe’s premier competition next season.

Fulham may be in ninth place, but a string of positive results can easily propel them into European contention. Marco Silva’s side has compiled a 13-5-13 record, and they’ve only lost once in their last five Premier League outings, winning on three occasions. The Cottagers are only five points behind Liverpool and just four points behind sixth-place Chelsea.

However, Fulham’s form on the road has been poor at times this term, going 4-3-8. In fact, the visitors have lost two of their last three games away from Craven Cottage. On a more positive note, the London outfit has clearly found success against Liverpool in recent memory, and with the Reds struggling immensely to find consistency, this is the perfect opportunity to snatch three points, or at the very least, one.

Liverpool vs Fulham Injury News

Liverpool remains without Alisson Becker (muscle), Wataru Endo (ankle), Conor Bradley (knee), and Giovanni Leoni (ACL), while Alexander Isak is back from a broken leg but is only fit enough for a potential cameo off the bench. Hugo Ekitike is expected to lead the line.

Fulham are missing Kevin (foot), Kenny Tete (ankle), and Harrison Reed (knee), though Calvin Bassey is expected to be fit and return to the starting lineup.

Liverpool vs Fulham Picks

The Reds are reeling, and Fulham has hit a nice run of form lately. They also possess some attacking threats that could cause trouble for a shaky Liverpool backline. I’ll take the visitors to secure a draw with Liverpool here.
