Bottom of the table Fulham will be hoping to build on their point at Old Trafford against fourth place Liverpool at Craven Cottage this evening.

The hosts have not won since New Year’s Day, and are four points from safety with thirteen games remaining.

Record signing Kostas Mitroglou must wait for his debut as the striker struggles to shake off a knee problem, while Fernando Amorebieta will also miss the game through injury.

Darren Bent, who bagged the injury-time equaliser last time out, is 13.0 (12/1) to open the scoring with Paddy Power, with Clint Dempsey a 17.0 (16/1) chance with the same firm.

The home win is as highly priced as the 8.5 (15/2) on offer from Bet Victor, who price the visitors at 1.4 (2/5) and the draw at 5.25 (17/4).

Brendan Rodgers’ men thumped title chasers Arsenal 5-1 last time out to strengthen their grip on fourth place.

The Reds are unbeaten in their last eight games in all competitions, and will move to within four points of leaders Chelsea with victory this evening.

Daniel Agger and Glen Johnson are both in line for returns this evening, though fellow defenders Jose Enrique and Mamadou Sakho remain out, along with midfielder Lucas.

Top scorer Luis Suarez, who has scored just one goal in his last five matches, is favourite to get the first of the game at 4.1 (31/10) with Bet Victor, with Daniel Sturridge a 5.5 (9/2) shot with the same firm.

Liverpool ran out 4-0 winners when the sides met at Anfield earlier in the season, as they did on Merseyside last season while their last clash at Craven Cottage ended in a 3-1 victory for the Reds.

With this in mind, you may want to take advantage of the 2.3 (13/10) on offer from Bet Victor for there to be over 3.5 goals scored this time around.

Alternatively, with Liverpool winning just one of their last four league games on the road, you may want to take advantage of 888 Sport’s offer of 3.15 (28/13) for the Cottagers to avoid defeat.
