As if Fulham’s situation could get any worse, they now have to play a Liverpool side that shrugged off Bayern in the Champions League followed by Manchester City who beat Schalke 7-0 in the same competition.
With Scott Parker’s side now 13 points off safety, they simply have to take points from at least one of these games. They showed glimpse of improvement against Chelsea, but now need to turn that into points as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Liverpool can’t afford to bask in their European progression, they are still one point behind Manchester City going into the crunch period of the season.
They’ve drawn three out of their last six, and all those points were dropped away from home. Fulham have conceded 68 goals this season, so Klopp’s side should see this as the perfect opportunity to finally win away.
