"The Reds saw their winning run halted by a goalless draw with Leeds, while Fulham were also forced to settle for a point after being held 1-1 by Crystal Palace. Liverpool's ability to cope without Mohamed Salah has largely impressed since the winger departed for the Africa Cup of Nations, but his absence was more noticeable in midweek as Arne Slot's side failed to convert dominance into goals against Leeds."
"Liverpool may opt to manage Florian Wirtz carefully after he was flagged for hamstring fatigue in midweek. The German is not injured but could be rested, which would likely open the door for Cody Gakpo. Mohamed Salah remains unavailable due to international duty, while Alexander Isak and Giovanni Leoni are sidelined with ankle and ACL injuries respectively. Wataru Endo is also expected to miss out, though Joe Gomez could return if deemed fit."
"Away from home, Liverpool have been more productive. They have scored at least twice in five of their last seven matches on the road in all competitions and are seeking a fourth win from their last five away outings. Fulham, meanwhile, saw their own three-match winning run come to an end against Crystal Palace. Tom Cairney's late equaliser salvaged a point after Jean-Philippe Mateta had put the visitors ahead, ensuring Marco Silva's side avoided back-to-back league defeats."
