Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 79
Liverpool wins: 45
Draws: 20
Fulham wins: 14
From 79 previous clashes between Liverpool and Fulham in all tournaments, it comes as no surprise to learn that the Reds dominate the head-to-head column, defeating their capital counterparts on 46 occasions compared to a paltry 14 wins for the Cottagers.
Each of the first four showdowns between 1912 and 1934 was fought in the FA Cup, while nine successive League Cup ties took place between 1983 and 2000, but the two clubs have met almost exclusively in the Premier League since the 2001-02 season.
The one - or two - aberrations in that sequence came in the 2023-24 EFL Cup, where Liverpool dug in for a 2-1 success on home soil before holding out for a 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage, prior to winning their final trophy under Jurgen Klopp's tutelage.
Before that 3-2 aggregate success, a seven-goal Premier League spectacular in December 2023 went Liverpool's way by four strikes to three, and the Reds also made light work of the Cottagers in a 3-1 Craven Cottage triumph in April 2024, their fourth win from five against the capital giants.
A new club record was set by Liverpool in their 4-3 win, where Fulham went 3-2 up in the 80th minute before throwing it all away, the latest that Liverpool had fallen behind in a Premier League game that they went on to prevail in.
In both 2023-24 Premier League fixtures, Trent Alexander-Arnold came up with some heroics for Liverpool, and his stellar set-piece at Craven Cottage marked the right-back's sixth goal direct from a free kick in the English top flight.
However, Arne Slot failed to get the better of Fulham during his debut season in the Premier League, as the Cottagers held the Reds to a 2-2 stalemate at Anfield before inflicting Liverpool's first away loss of that top-flight campaign with a 3-2 success at Craven Cottage.
Prior to a 1-0 win in May 2023, Liverpool had endured a three-game Premier League run without beating Marco Silva's side, also playing out 2-2 and 1-1 draws in Craven Cottage clashes in August 2022 and December 2020 respectively.
A 1-0 loss at Anfield in March 2021 was sandwiched in between those two stalemates, where Mario Lemina's effort on the stroke of half time prolonged Liverpool's home hoodoo behind closed doors, and Fulham also won by the same scoreline on Liverpool's turf in 2012 owing to a Martin Skrtel own goal.
