Fulham is currently one point above the relegation zone this weekend as they head into the Premier League. It would prove a major battle as Fulham welcome Liverpool at Craven Cottage. The match schedules for Sunday with kickoff at 7:30 pm.
The Cottages were beaten 2-0 by Manchester City last time out and face another Premier League’s big hitter in Liverpool. Their opponents head into the weekend while sitting joint top of the table.
Despite preparing to pick all three points this Sunday at Craven Cottage to improve their stance in the heated Premier League race. However, the side keeps their eyes locked on Wednesday’s match-defining moment against Tottenham.
Tottenham is currently sitting at the top of the league with a goal difference and remain in action before the Reds get underway. Klopp will know that a win this weekend will improve their claim of the top spot.
Klopp will continue stressing the importance of keeping their focus maintained, especially with the injury crisis currently at the club. Although they continue to show dominance in their home form with impressive wins against Leicester City and Wolves, there away form has not been very solid.
Scott Parker heads into the match having lost three of their last four league matches and have lost already nine times this season. A 2-1 win against Leicester might be the boost Parker needs this weekend.
