MATCH DETAILS
Fulham v. Liverpool
March 17, 2019
Craven Cottage, London
MATCH PREVIEW
Fulham will take on Liverpool in match day 31 at Craven Cottage on Sunday, with a victory pushing them back to the top of the Premier League table.
Jurgen Klopp's men come in after a stunning 3-1 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League and face a Fulham side with one win in it's last five matches. Liverpool's trio of Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino need to step up to score some away goals, which has been hurting them in the title race.
On the other hand, Fulham's caretaker manager Scott Parker will be taking his third game in charge. The Cottagers need 13 points to get away from the relegation zone, but that won't be easy after allowing a league-worst 68 goals in 30 matches.
PREDICTED LINEUPS
Fulham: Sergio Rico (gk), Denis Odoi, Havard Nordtveit, Tim Ream, Joe Bryan, Calum Chambers, Kevin McDonald, Tom Cairney, Ryan Babel, Aleksandar Mitrovic, Ryan Sessegnon
Liverpool: Alisson Becker (gk), Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joel Matip, Virgil van Dijk, Andrew Robertson, Georginio Wijnaldum, Fabinho, James Milner, Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane
COMBINED XI
PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker (8.5 credits): No goalkeeper has kept more clean sheets this season than Alisson's 17 in 30 matches. With solid defence in-front of him, he is averaging 2.1 saves per match, while conceding

COMBINED XI
PLAYERS RECOMMENDATIONS
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker (8.5 credits): No goalkeeper has kept more clean sheets this season than Alisson's 17 in 30 matches. With solid defence in-front of him, he is averaging 2.1 saves per match, while conceding just 0.6 goals. Given Fulham's struggles, another solid performance should be expected.
Defender: Andrew Robertson (9.0 credits): The Scottish international didn't have his greatest evening at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, but one game cannot wash out his past performances. He has proved to be an outstanding attacking left-back for the Reds by notching eight assists, and he has been consistent defender with the average of 1.5 clearances and 1.6 tackles per game.
Midfielder: Sadio Mane (10.0 credits): Mane has been in prime form, helping Liverpool stay in title contention, and his brilliant brace against Bayern Munich helped the Reds advance to the quarter-final. He has 16 league goals in 28 matches this season, including six in his last four, and he'll continue to be a key attacking point for the Reds.
Forward: Mohamed Salah (11.0 credits): Salah has scored just once in his last nine games, but it cannot be overlooked that he still has 17 goals and seven assists in 30 games this season. After bagging in the reverse fixture, it wouldn't surprise anyone if he was back on the scoresheet Sunday.
Captain: Sadio Mane
Vice-captain: Mohamed Salah
