Coral have decided to go best price about Rafael Benitez’s team for this match, offering 2/7 that they continue to match Chelsea stride-for-stride at the top of the table. However, it might not be plain sailing for Liverpool, despite Fulham’s woeful record away from home, where they have picked up just one point from five matches.

The Cottagers aren’t being tonked every time they go on the road. Three of their four defeats have been by a 1-0 scoreline, illustrating that they lack a cutting edge on their travels. They’re unlikely to find this at Anfield, so the 14/1 (bet365) about an unlikely victory is best avoided. However, the 19/20 (Victor Chandler) about Roy Hodgson’s men with a +1.5 goal start is an attractive proposition. After all, Liverpool have only beaten one team by more than one goal at home, that being basement boys West Brom a fortnight ago.

Fernando Torres is likely to start this match as he works his way back towards full fitness, and the Spaniard is 3/1 (Coral) to open the scoring and 4/5 (Blue Square) to score at any time. Dirk Kuyt (5/1 William Hill) was the first name on the scoresheet at Bolton last week, while Andy Johnson is 12/1 (William Hill) to put the visitors into a surprise lead.
