High-flying Liverpool will be aiming to retain top position in the Premier League standings when they welcome Fulham to their Anfield on Matchday 16. The Reds dropped two points in a 3-3 draw with Newcastle United, but they are still seen as hot favourites to beat the Cottagers at home ground. Argentina midfielder Alexis Mac Alisster is banned for the match due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while all Kostas Tsimikas, Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley, and Federico Chiesa remain in the recovery room.
The Cottagers, on the other hand, did well to hold Arsenal to a 1-1 draw in the London derby, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Mohamed Salah and Co. As Liverpool have turned their Anfield into a real fortress, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. Both Calvin Bassey and Tom Cairney are banned for the visiting team.
Score Prediction: Liverpool 2-1 Fulham
