Liverpool v Fulham Match Preview

Liverpool will face Fulham tomorrow night at Anfield still fresh from their 3-0 win over Wolves last Sunday.

The Reds’ long awaited win and the return of captain Steven Gerrard will boost the team against Mark Hughes’ side.
Fulham have also won their last league game against Stoke, but they not been able to secure a win at Anfield in their last 29 meetings there.

Manager Mark Hughes will be without defenders Matthew Briggs and Philippe Senderos due to injury, as well as Bobby Zamora out with a broken leg. Dickson Etuhu and Aaron Hughes will be assessed prior to the game after picking up injuries against Stoke last Saturday.

Goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer is still on international duty for Australia, putting David Stockdale in goal.

Liverpool are only without defender and co-captain Jamie Carragher, due to a shoulder injury.

A win for Fulham will put them at the same amount of points on the Premier League table at 29 while a win for Liverpool will see them take a major jump in the table to 7th.

Kick-off is at 8pm and will be broadcasted live on BBC Radio 5 Live.
