Liverpool will take on Fulham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final at Anfield on Wednesday.
The Reds will be without their star man Mohamed Salah, who is currently away with Egypt at the 2023 AFCON. However, they will still be confident of mounting a big advantage in the first leg after a six-game unbeaten run, which included a 2-0 win over title rivals Arsenal in the FA Cup.
Fulham, meanwhile, managed to register a big win against Arsenal in the Premier League before also reaching the fourth round of the FA Cup by beating Rotherham. However, going up against Liverpool at Anfield will be a monumental task for the Cottagers. Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch the semi-final clash, including TV channel, streaming details and more.

Liverpool team news
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has revealed that Virgin Van Dijk is fit to play after recovering from illness. However, Klopp is currently facing the challenge of being without Trent Alexander-Arnold for the next few weeks due to a knee injury. He is the latest in a long line of injured players at Anfield, as Dominik Szoboszlai (hamstring), Andrew Robertson (shoulder), Kostas Tsimikas (collarbone), Stefan Bajcetic (calf), Thiago Alcantara (hip), Ben Doak (knee), and Joel Matip (ACL) all remain in the treatment room and won't be available in the near future.
In addition to also being without Salah for both legs of the tie, Japanese international Wataru Endo is unavailable due to Asian Cup commitments.
