Saturday’s late kick off in the Premier League sees twelfth place Liverpool host a Fulham side one place, and two points below them.

The Reds go in to the game on the back last weekend’s shock 3-1 defeat to Aston Villa, a result that means that only Villa themselves, Sunderland and the bottom three have a worse record in front of their own fans this campaign.

Liverpool have no fresh injury problems, with Oussama Assaidi, Martin Kelly and Fabio Borini remaining the only absentees. Full back Jose Enrique could feature following a hamstring injury, whilst midfielder Nuri Sahin has recovered from surgery on a broken nose.

Captain Steven Gerrard, whose consolation goal last Saturday was his first in eleven league games, is 9.0 (8/1) with a variety of firms to open the scoring, while top scorer Luis Suarez is favourite at a best price of 4.5 (7/2).

The home win is favoured with 1.57 (4/7) the best price on offer, with Fulham a 7.0 (6/1) shot with some bookmakers. The draw is 4.2 (16/5) with Sky Bet.

The visitors were beaten previously winless Queens Park Rangers last time out, and have won just once in nine outings.

They too have no new injury concerns, with full back Sacha Reither available after recovering from a knee problem though midfielder Steve Sidwell is suspended.

Mladen Petric got his fifth goal of the season with his sides late consolation at Loftus Road, and is as highly priced as 13.0 (12/1) to get the first goal of the game, just behind Dimitar Berbatov who is 12.0 (11/1).

Both sides finished with almost identical records last season; Liverpool only edging Fulham by virtue of goal difference, though Fulham did win both meetings between the sides,

A Martin Skrtel own goal was enough to give Fulham the points at Anfield in May, while the West Londoners won by the same score line at Craven Cottage last December.

Bet Victor offer a rather generous price of 21.0 (20/1) for a 1-0 away win, while the 1-0/Petric scorecast is a 126.0 (125/1) chance with the same firm.
