Liverpool vs Fulham - Predicted lineup and team news

Liverpool host Fulham at Anfield on Saturday looking to convert home draws into a first Premier League win of the season under Andoni Iraola.

The Reds have scored at least twice in every league game so far and go into the weekend on the back of a Champions League win over Atletico Madrid. Iraola gave a measured assessment of Saturday's opponents, saying Fulham "have been so good" in each of their league matches this season despite losing all three by a single goal.

Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni, Hugo Ekitike, Joe Gomez and Federico Chiesa remain sidelined. Cody Gakpo is a doubt with an adductor issue, while Bradley Barcola and Milos Kerkez both required treatment for cramp during the midweek win over Atletico Madrid but are not thought to have suffered anything more serious.

Victor Munoz is primed to start if neither Gakpo nor Barcola is passed fit, continuing on the flank alongside Florian Wirtz and Rio Ngumoha in support of Alexander Isak. A goal on Saturday would already take Isak past his total for the whole of last season.

Liverpool predicted lineup

Liverpool possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Araujo, Jacquet, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Munoz, Wirtz, Ngumoha; Isak
