Fulham welcome Liverpool to Craven Cottage in the second leg of the EFL Cup semi-final tie with the scoreline currently favouring the latter 2-1.
Fulham started the first leg in sublime form as they led the tie during the halfway mark at Anfield. But Liverpool's waves of attacks in the second half destroyed their resilience as the side conceded two goals in just three minutes to lose the clash. Marco Silva will be hoping for better application and continued resilience when they host the English heavyweights in the second leg.
The Reds came back from a goal behind to score twice as Jurgen Klopp's men produced another scintillating comeback. Darwin Nunez's introduction in the second half turned out to be a masterstroke by Klopp as the Uruguayan forward bagged two assists to help the Reds capture the lead in the first leg and they now look to book a place in the final of the domestic competition.
