Liverpool v Fulham: Confirmed line-ups as Reds seek third straight win
Liverpool could make changes on the wings as Cody Gakpo and Bradley Barcola face late fitness checks before the 3 p.m. kickoff.
Liverpool hosts Fulham at Anfield on Saturday, September 12, 2026, with kickoff scheduled for 3pm BST in a Premier League clash between the unbeaten Reds and winless Cottagers.
The Reds enter the match following consecutive victories over Ipswich Town and Atletico Madrid, while Fulham remains pointless after three league defeats, sitting at the bottom of the table.
Manager Andoni Iraola confirmed Bradley Barcola is available after midweek cramps, though Cody Gakpo remains a doubt with an adductor problem. Hugo Ekitike, Giovanni Leoni, and Federico Chiesa are confirmed absentees.
Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa returns to Anfield, where he made 94 appearances as a player; Liverpool has lost only twice to the Cottagers in the past 14 years at the venue.
Pressure mounts on Arbeloa seeking his first Premier League point against his former club, while Andoni Iraola aims to extend Liverpool's winning streak to three consecutive victories across competitions.
