Liverpool Preview

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-Up: Alisson; Andy Robertson, Virgil Van Dijk (c), Joe Gomez, Trent Alexander-Arnold; Curtis Jones, Ryan Gravenberch; Luis Díaz, Dominik Szoboszlai, Mohamed Salah; Darwin Núñez

Liverpool have had an excellent start to the season, finding themselves as league leaders so early on in the campaign. After 14 games they sit in first place with 11 wins, one loss and two draws. Those matches have left them with 35 points, holding an impressive four point gap to second placed Chelsea and with a game in hand due to the postponement of the Merseyside derby. In the goals for The Reds has been the unstoppable force of Mohamed Salah, having a Balon D’Or worthy season. The Egyptian has found the back of the net 13 times this season, the highest tally out of all the players in the Premier League. It hasn’t just been the spectacular goal output for Salah like it usually is, but Salah has been a provider for eight assists to his teammates. He has been directly involved in 21 out of the 29 goals that Liverpool have scored this season, making him irreplaceable. He will most probably be the star of the show once more on Saturday.

Fulham Preview

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-Up: Bernd Leno; Antonee Robinson, Jorge Cuenca, Issa Diop, Kenny Tete; Saša Lukić, Sander Berge; Alex Iwobi, Emile Smith-Rowe, Adama Traoré; Raúl Jiménez

Fulham have had a decent start to the season, finding themselves in the mid-table places so early on in the campaign. After 15 games they sit in 10th place with six wins, four losses and five draws. Those matches have left them with 23 points, sharing the same number with one other team but goal difference the defining factor as to why they are not higher. A win would give them the potential to climb to as high as fifth depending on other results so Marco Silva will definitely be fielding a strong side. In the goals for The Cottagers have been the trio of Emile Smith-Rowe, Alex Iwobi and Raúl Jiménez. Between the three of them, they have found the back of the net 13 times and registered seven assists. Combining those numbers, they have contributed to 20 out of 22 of Fulham’s goals this season. With all of the London based club’s goals coming from them, they will be the best options for Fulham in their efforts of snatching something from this game on Saturday.
