**Salah's Return Could Expose Fulham's Shaky Defense**
The key battle? Trent Alexander-Arnold versus Fulham's left flank, where Antonee Robinson's attacking instincts leave gaps Liverpool will exploit.
Liverpool's 14 wins tell half the story—those 10 losses show vulnerability on the road. Fulham's sitting mid-table with 13 wins, but they've dropped points in five of their last eight at Craven Cottage. Slot's side needs this after dropping points to Manchester United, and they'll come out aggressive.
Here's the thing: Fulham will make it interesting for 60 minutes. JimĂ©nez and Iwobi can hurt you on the counter. But Liverpool's got too much firepower once Salah and DĂaz find space in the final third.
**Prediction: Liverpool 3-1.** They'll concede early, panic for 20 minutes, then overwhelm Fulham's backline in the second half.
