Fulham v Liverpool result predicted by supercomputer
Liverpool will attempt to take a significant step closer to winning the Premier League on Sunday when they face Fulham.
Arne Slot’s Reds will travel to the nation’s capital for their latest fixture as they aim to continue their momentum from defeating Everton in midweek.
It was a crucial Merseyside derby victory for Liverpool to ensure that a crisis in confidence was avoided after being knocked out of Europe and losing the EFL Cup final in the same week prior to the international break.
The Premier League leaders came out on top of a tight game against David Moyes’ side, with Diogo Jota’s goal being the difference on the day between the two teams.
However, a strong defensive performance helped Liverpool get back to winning ways as they reminded everyone of their dominant position in the Premier League.
Liverpool want to build a winning run
With no other competitions to play for, Liverpool will now be attempting to wrap up the Premier League as quickly as possible to get their hands on the trophy.
The Reds sit 12 points ahead of Arsenal with eight games to go after losing just once all season in the Premier League, but Fulham will be sure to put up a tough test.
Marco Silva’s men are pushing for European football next season, and given the closeness of the teams involved in that race, there is little room for error.
| Premier League Table | Games Played | Won | Goal Difference | Points |
| 1. Liverpool | 30 | 22 | +43 | 73 |
| 9. Fulham | 30 | 12 | +4 | 45 |
However, the Opta supercomputer has placed Liverpool as the heavy favourites to win with a 50 per cent chance of that happening.
Fulham have a 25.8 per cent chance while the likelihood of it being a draw sits at 24.5, showcasing how strong Liverpool are looking heading into this fixture.
Liverpool have concerns for next season
The Reds might have dominated the 2024-25 campaign, but there are worries within the fanbase about next season due to the three potentially major outgoings that might take place this summer.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is believed to be joining Real Madrid on a free transfer after this campaign ends, while Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk’s contracts are also up.
It’s unclear at this stage whether they will follow the England international out of the exit door or if they’ll sign extensions, and the lack of clarity is concerning supporters due to how tough they will be to replace.
