Fulham vs Liverpool

Lyrics

Liverpool will once again kick off another Premier League season against a newly-promoted side, as Fulham play host to the Reds at Craven Cottage on Saturday.

Jurgen Klopp's men were forced to accept second best again last season, while the Cottagers are aiming to avoid a swift demotion back down to the second tier.

Liverpool have already kicked off their 2022-23 season with a much-deserved win over the reigning champions in the Community Shield and have also secured a number of victories off the field, winning the race to sign Darwin Nunez and finally convincing Mohamed Salah to put pen to paper on a new deal until 2025.

Liverpool have already kicked off their 2022-23 season with a much-deserved win over the reigning champions in the Community Shield and have also secured a number of victories off the field, winning the race to sign Darwin Nunez and finally convincing Mohamed Salah to put pen to paper on a new deal until 2025.

Interestingly, Fulham's most recent Premier League win was a 1-0 success over Liverpool at Anfield in 2021, and they also held the Reds to a draw at Craven Cottage that same year, but Liverpool are going in search of their fifth opening-day win with at least three goals scored in succession this weekend.

Diogo Jota, Alex Oxlade Chamberlain and Ibrahim lead the list of Liverpool players who could miss this game due to injury while Fulham would also be without Joe Bryan and Nathaniel Chaloboah.

Liverpool are the overwhelming favourites to win at 1.28 odds.
