Newly-promoted Fulham have a mammoth task ahead of them as they commence the new Premier League season with a home game against last year's runners-up Liverpool. The Reds will be high in confidence heading into the meeting at Craven Cottage, having beaten Manchester City 3-1 in the Community Shield last week.

Jurgen Klopp's team are out to mount another serious challenge for the Premier League title and will know that every point counts as their fellow contenders will not be allowing them much room for error over the course of the campaign.

Fulham vs Liverpool preview

Liverpool may be the big favourites to seal the victory, but they will have to do so without the likes of Ibrahima Konate, Caoimhin Kelleher, Diogo Jota, Curtis Jones and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Fulham, on the other hand, are expected to be without full-back Joe Bryan and winger Harry Wilson, who join Nathaniel Chalobah on the injury list.

The pressure is on the Anfield side to get the new season underway with a strong performance as Manchester City are expected to match them stride for stride, while the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal could be in the mix, too.

However, Fulham have given Jurgen Klopp's team a tough time in their last two meetings.

Fulham beat them 1-0 at Anfield in 2021 before their relegation to the Championship, while the Reds' last visit to Craven Cottage ended in a 1-1 draw.
