Fulham vs Liverpool prediction and betting tips on April 21, 2024
Game Prediction
This weekend will feature a lot of football. Unusually for England, much of the football will be on Sunday, which is due to the European cups - for instance, Liverpool only played on Thursday, so they will visit Fulham only on the second of the weekend days. Can the ambitious visitors win in London? The site has posted an author's prediction for the match on April 21, 2024.
Fulham seems to be losing motivation in the spring
The "Cottagers" were an English football "elevator" until Marco Silva arrived, constantly moving up to the Premier League but unable to stay there. The Portuguese won the Championship and confidently finished mid-table in 2022/2023. There were not the best forecasts for the new start: without the departed goal-scoring Mitrovic, they had to go through the infamous "second season" in the "elite." However, they reached the League Cup semi-finals for the first time ever. Yes, their Premier League performance has declined, but the threat of relegation by spring was already no cause for concern. This may have played a role, leading to defeats against Nottingham Forest and Newcastle. On the other hand, they beat West Ham 2-0.
Liverpool has faced several setbacks in the spring
The "Reds" ended February with a League Cup victory, seen as the first step toward a "quadruple" for departing Klopp. However, Manchester United proved to be their nemesis, knocking them out of the cup and taking points in the Premier League, ending in a 2-2 draw. Furthermore, Atalanta shocked Anfield, winning 3-0 in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals last Thursday. They scored quickly in Italy but got stuck there, winning 1-0 but exiting the tournament. Against this backdrop, they suffered another setback in the last round against Crystal Palace with a 0-1 loss at home.
Previous matches
Liverpool had three consecutive wins. The 1-1 draw in the League Cup semi-final second leg can also be considered a success as the team progressed to the decisive round, where they won in extra time against Chelsea.
