Liverpool vs. Fulham predicted lineups, team news
Liverpool may be spoiled for choice in midfield and up top, but it’s at the back where Arne Slot’s got a bit of a headache. Joe Gomez is still nursing a hamstring issue, and Trent Alexander-Arnold—who’s Madrid-bound this summer—is out of the picture with that lingering ankle knock.
Conor Bradley is inching closer to a return from a thigh injury but will need to pass a late fitness check, while Alisson Becker remains on standby. The Brazilian keeper couldn’t clear the final hurdle in his concussion protocol ahead of the Merseyside derby, and Slot won’t take any chances.
Elsewhere, the cupboard is full. Mohamed Salah, eyeing another slice of Premier League history, is locked and loaded despite drawing a blank in the derby.
The Egyptian marksman has racked up two or more goal involvements in each of his last four league games away from Anfield—and if he turns it on again at Craven Cottage, he’d be the first player ever to hit that mark in five straight on the road.
Liverpool predicted lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Alisson (GK) — Quansah, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson — Gravenberch, Mac Allister — Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz — Jota.
Injured: Joe Gomez, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Conor Bradley.
Suspended: None
Over at Fulham, it’s pretty much business as usual on the injury front. Kenny Tete remains sidelined with a knee issue, while Harry Wilson—facing his former club—is out of the picture with a foot problem. Reiss Nelson, meanwhile, has packed his bags and returned to Arsenal for treatment on a thigh injury that’s kept him grounded.
After his three-at-the-back experiment fell flat at the Emirates, Marco Silva is expected to roll back the clock and revert to his trusty 4-2-3-1 setup—even if Liverpool’s firepower poses an even bigger threat.
Still, there’s a bit of a selection dilemma up top, as both Rodrigo Muniz and Ryan Sessegnon put their hands up with a midweek link-up that resulted in Fulham’s lone goal. They’ve made a strong case to feature from the opening whistle.
Fulham predicted lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Leno (GK) — Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson — Berge, Lukic — Traore, Pereira, Iwobi — Muniz.
Injured: Kenny Tete, Harry Wilson, Reiss Nelson
Suspended: None
