The chase for the Premier League title continues, with Liverpool traveling to Craven Cottage to play against Fulham on April 21, 2024 at 4:30 pm.
Liverpool will be looking forward to going over Manchester City, who will be playing in the FA Cup semi-finals against Chelsea on April 20, 2024.
12th-placed Fulham side will also be looking forward to compounding Liverpool’s woes, as they have lost their last two Premier League matches.
Fulham vs Liverpool Preview
Fulham have been on fine this season, shocking teams like Arsenal and Manchester United. They are extremely good at Craven Cottage.
Fulham dismantled West Ham away from home in their previous match. The two goals were scored by former Manchester United attacker Andreas Pereira. The Fulham team played with so much composure and were able to stop the West Ham attackers.
Liverpool, on the other hand, are currently suffering from missing chances in the previous matches. They created a lot against Manchester United, Atalanta, and Crystal Palace, but they were not clinical enough.
In Liverpool’s last match against Crystal Palace in the Premier League, Crystal Palace hit Liverpool in the first half of the game through Eberechi Eze. That was the only goal of the match.
Both teams missed clear-cut chances. Curtis Jones, Darwin Nunez, and Cody Gakpo found themselves in a position to put Liverpool ahead, but they all wasted the opportunity.
However, the team got back to winning ways, defeating Atalanta on April 18, 2024 in the Europa League. Mohamed Salah scored the only goal of the game through penalty, but the goal was not enough to secure the semi-finals.
Jurgen Klopp wants to end the season with a Premier League title, but he has to win the remaining Premier League matches and hope either Arsenal or Manchester City drop points in the next six matches.
