Liverpool FC will host Fulham at Anfield this weekend, and several prominent pundits have offered their predictions for the match.

Arne Slot's Liverpool are strong favourites to beat Fulham at Anfield on Saturday, as the Spanish manager looks to secure three consecutive wins since taking charge.

Shearer predicted a Liverpool victory in his weekly Betfred column, writing: "I think Liverpool should win, and they will win. They had a good result in Europe on Wednesday, but the defensive issue has returned. However, at Anfield, I believe they have enough quality to beat their opposition.

"For Liverpool FC, it is crucial that Isak stays fit and maintains his current form. After last season, this is something he desperately needs for himself and for Liverpool FC.

"Before the season kicked off, I said I had concerns about Crystal Palace, Fulham, and one or two other teams, so I wasn't surprised to see how Fulham's season started. Arteta needs to win soon—if he doesn't, you know what will happen next.

"And the international break is coming up. I think there are only two league games left before that, so Fulham need to pick up points from these two matches."

Chris Sutton also backed Liverpool FC to win, though his former Blackburn Rovers teammate seemed to suggest that Fulham haven't turned a corner under their new manager, while acknowledging that all the pressure is on Slot's side.

Sutton predicted a 2-1 Liverpool FC victory, writing: "For Fulham, the biggest issue is the manager. Will they continue to struggle under Arteta's leadership? He will be under pressure until he gets that first Premier League win.

"If you start poorly, you're watched very closely. It's the same for every manager. While Fulham have good attacking players, they're conceding too many goals defensively.

"They drew with Crystal Palace twice, which was a poor start, but losing made this match even more important for Arteta.

"Arteta needs a result to boost the season, or at least something to cling to. I don't think they'll have no chance at Anfield.

"After watching Liverpool FC play at Ipswich, I don't think they've solved all their problems. Their high defensive line will give their opponents opportunities to score. Fulham will score, but Arteta's problem is that Liverpool FC will score more."
