Prediction: Liverpool Wins
Our prediction for Fulham v Liverpool is Liverpool Wins and BTTS. This match sees two teams that have been in strong form and that are chasing European qualification face off. As a result, we should be in for an interesting battle, with each team having the potential to carry the day.
Despite their shortcomings this season, Liverpool have been one of the top attacking EPL teams. They have averaged more than a goal a game. Defensively, though, is where they have struggled, and keeping clean sheets has also been a problem for their hosts.
Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Fulham

|---|---|---|---|---|

| 27 Dec 2025 | Premier League | West Ham | 0:1 | Fulham |

Fulham have given their European hopes a shot in the arm in recent outings. Marco Silva’s men haven’t lost in four league matches. They are coming off a 1-1 draw away to Crystal Palace. After previously defeating Nottingham Forest and West Ham without conceding, the Cottagers have improved to 27 points.
They have avoided defeat 11 times, winning on eight occasions, and now sit just three points from the top six. Fulham have been a hard nut to crack, especially when at home, where 16 of their league points have come from. Last season, Fulham went unbeaten against Liverpool, winning an intense battle at home 3-2.
Long-term injury absentee Rodrigo Muniz remains unavailable for Fulham, and so too is Ryan Sessegnon. The Londoners have also been further depleted by the departures of Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, and Samu Chukwueze, who are away at the AFCON.
Despite these, the Cottagers have been in superb form, with Harry Wilson and Raul Jimenez playing key roles in their current form. The two have combined for nine goals this season. Sasa Lukic and Emile Smith-Rowe are others that Fulham can rely on here to gain an edge.
Liverpool
| Date | Competition | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 Jan 2026 | Premier League | Liverpool | 0:0 | Leeds |
| 27 Dec 2025 | Premier League | Liverpool | 2:1 | Wolves |
| 21 Dec 2025 | Premier League | Tottenham | 1:2 | Liverpool |
| 13 Dec 2025 | Premier League | Liverpool | 2:0 | Brighton |
| 10 Dec 2025 | Champions League | Inter Milan | 0:1 | Liverpool |
| 7 Dec 2025 | Premier League | Leeds | 3:3 | Liverpool |
Liverpool are also coming into this match with an unbeaten streak of their own. Arne Slot’s men have settled since a torrid stretch of games between September and November. They have gotten back into the Champions League places, thanks to an eight-game unbeaten run.
Only one match in this streak hasn’t been in the league. The Reds have won five times in this purple patch, though they were held back by a 0-0 draw with Leeds in midweek. Their third stalemate of the season ended a four-game winning run. Liverpool, who have won 10 games and lost another six, are six points off third place.
Liverpool also have a long list of absentees for this fixture. With Mohammed Salah unavailable as he is away at the AFCON, Liverpool were dealt a major blow in their attacking department with injury to Alexander Isak.
The forward has missed the last two games and is expected to be out for a considerable spell. Hugo Ekitike remains their only option in the striker's position and is the team’s top scorer with 11 goals. Cody Gakpo returned recently from injury, but Wataru Endo remains out.
