Liverpool prepare to face Fulham at Anfield on Saturday, September 4 at 3 pm UK time, as the home side looks to extend their recent winning streak. The Reds have built momentum with victories over Ipswich and Atletico Madrid, while Fulham arrive still searching for their first points of the season under manager Andoni Iraola. The early September fixture carries traditional weight, with expectations high at the home ground and the straightforward objective of maintaining winning form.
Viewers in different regions will have varying access to the match. UK-based supporters cannot watch the fixture live on television or streaming services due to the 3 pm broadcast blackout that protects attendance at English football grounds. However, American audiences can view the encounter on Peacock, with kickoff scheduled for 10 am Eastern Time and 7 am Pacific Time. International viewers outside these regions may consider VPN services to access coverage from other territories.
Liverpool face injury concerns ahead of the clash, with forward Cody Gakpo doubtful after failing to return to training following a knock sustained against Ipswich. The positive news includes Bradley Barcola’s availability and Milos Kerkez’s expected fitness, both having withdrawn from midweek action due to cramp rather than serious injury. Joe Gomez continues his rehabilitation and may feature in squad selection soon, while Giovanni Leoni, Federico Chiesa, Conor Bradley and Hugo Ekitike remain unavailable.
Fulham’s preparation is complicated by the absence of captain Tom Cairney, recovering from knee surgery, and striker Jonah Kusi-Asare’s persistent knee issues. Despite their difficult start to the campaign, the visitors may prove troublesome opponents, intent on frustrating Liverpool through controlled tempo and tactical discipline at Anfield.
