The Cottagers face a tough test as they host Liverpool at Craven Cottage on 6th April 2025 in a Premier League clash that could have major implications for both sides. The Cottagers have struggled for consistency at home, while Liverpool remain a force on the road. Kick Off Nigeria editor Ayomide Oguntimehin previews the form, key stats, and best betting odds for this fixture.
Match Preview: Fulham vs Liverpool
Fulham have had a turbulent few weeks, suffering heavy defeats to Arsenal and Crystal Palace, though they did manage an impressive 2-0 win over Tottenham. Their home form has been patchy, and facing a Liverpool side looking to maintain their title push presents a daunting challenge.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have been inconsistent in recent fixtures. They edged out Everton in the Merseyside Derby but were eliminated from the EFL Cup by Newcastle and struggled against PSG in the Champions League. However, their strong away form—including wins at Manchester City and PSG—suggests they could prove too much for Marco Silva’s side.

Recent Form: Fulham
Fulham’s inconsistency has seen them struggle across competitions. Their 3-0 FA Cup defeat to Crystal Palace was a huge setback, and they also fell to Arsenal and Brighton in the league. However, their 2-0 victory over Tottenham showcased their ability to trouble big sides when at their best.
At Craven Cottage, they have been unpredictable, with losses to Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Arsenal, but wins over Nottingham Forest and Tottenham provide some hope.
Recent Form: Liverpool
Liverpool bounced back from their EFL Cup disappointment with a 1-0 win over Everton, but their Champions League exit to PSG was a blow. Domestically, they remain a threat, having beaten Manchester City and Southampton in recent weeks.
Away from home, Liverpool have been strong, winning at Manchester City and PSG, though they’ve also dropped points in draws against Aston Villa, Plymouth and Everton.
Player to Watch: Alex Iwobi
The Super Eagles star, who has created the most chances in Fulham’s squad, will be a key player to watch when they host Liverpool on Sunday. Although he hasn’t scored since his brace against West Ham United in January, he will be eager to get back on the scoresheet against the Reds.
Best Betting Odds
