As the Premier League season enters its decisive phase, Fulham hosts table-topping Liverpool at Craven Cottage in a clash that could shape both standings. While Liverpool chase history, Fulham aim to salvage pride and push for a respectable top-half finish. For Kenyan football fans and punters alike, this is a fixture brimming with intrigue—and betting potential.
🔥 Form Guide: Fulham’s Rollercoaster Season
At the start of February, Fulham looked red-hot, stringing together five wins in six matches and daring to dream of European qualification. But the good times didn’t last. Since then, they’ve crashed out of the FA Cup and lost two of their last three Premier League games, including a narrow 2-1 loss to Arsenal in midweek.
Currently sitting 9th, Marco Silva’s men are safe from relegation but face the same old story—another mid-table finish. And the stats don’t favour them here either. Fulham are winless in their last 11 league matches against sides who started the day top of the table (D1, L10).
🔴 Liverpool: A Title in Sight
Liverpool, on the other hand, is flying. Their 100th victory over Everton in the Merseyside derby midweek solidified their position at the summit, keeping a comfortable 12-point cushion over Arsenal. The Reds are marching steadily towards a record-equalling 20th English top-flight title—and the mood in the red half of Merseyside couldn’t be better.
Coach Arne Slot isn’t taking anything for granted, though. He’ll be wary of Fulham’s attacking threats, but he’ll also know Liverpool have won their last three league visits to London. They haven’t made it four in a row since the 2020/21 season, but now’s the perfect time to do it.
⚔️ Head-to-Head & Key Stats
- Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 15 clashes with Fulham (W10, D4, L1).
- In the last 10 league meetings between these two at Craven Cottage, both teams have scored in 9 of them.
- Fulham haven’t beaten a table-topping side in 11 attempts.
- In the reverse fixture, Liverpool and Fulham drew 4-4 in a thriller, with Diogo Jota scoring late.
⭐ Players to Watch
Rodrigo Muniz (Fulham):
The Brazilian striker is proving to be a big-game player. This season, he’s found the net against City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, and Liverpool. Interestingly, 11 of his last 13 goals have come after halftime—a stat worth noting for in-play bettors.
Diogo Jota (Liverpool):
Jota continues to be a clutch performer. He rescued a point in the reverse fixture and struck the winner against Everton midweek. Even more impressively, Liverpool lost just once in the 54 games, whereas Jota scored just once (W46, D7).
🔍 Prediction: Fulham vs Liverpool
Despite Fulham’s fight and occasional big-game flashes, this looks like Liverpool’s match to lose. The Reds have more to play for and a stronger bench, plus their record in London is looking sharp. Fulham could get on the scoresheet—especially if Muniz is on form—but Liverpool’s class should prevail.
Predicted Score: Fulham 1-3 Liverpool
