Liverpool form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Anfield as Liverpool have scored 43 goals to get 37 points from 16 games. The overall stats in the Premier League are 11-4-1 (wins-draws-losses). The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of four straight victories regardless of arena.

Liverpool's previous game was also played at home, ending 4-3 versus Tottenham Hotspur (placed 6th). The home side are looking to build on that result. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today? World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Klopp when Jota scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 63rd minute. The versatile forward Díaz bettered all others in that fixture and received a match rating of 7.45 out of 10. Díaz scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 4 of 7 times and had 32 successful passes (of 36 total).

Before that match, a win away at West Ham United.

Liverpool are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found 7 matches and the win/draw/lost stats: Won 4, drew 3 and lost 0.

Both teams on the scoresheet! That has been the case in 5 league matches in a row for this team. Could it happen again?

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Brentford are coming to town in three days.

Liverpool are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Anfield in their league games, having scored an impressive 43 goals in 16 matches.

Fulham form and stats

6 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses. That’s the product of Fulham playing as the away team in the Premier League this season.

The manager da Silva was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium Craven Cottage. Fulham suffered a 1-2 loss to Manchester City (placed 1st). Fulham goalkeeper Leno enjoyed a fine day at work against Manchester City, but in spite of pulling off seven saves the loss could not be evaded.

A 0-1 defeat away at Aston Villa before that.

Fulham are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 21 away goals from 16 games (in the league). As opposed to that, Fulham have seen the ball go into their own net 21 times on the road.
