Maxime Le Machand tries to play a ball through for Ryan Sessegnon but it's overcooked and Alisson can come out and collect.

Liverpool are well on top now.

Paul Walmsley: Say what you like about the first goal but that was a lovely finish by Shaq!

Ieuan Latham: Great goal by Shaqiri this is why he needs to stay in the first 11.

As it stands, Liverpool will return to the top of the Premier League table. If only for a few hours.

That looks an easy finish. Shaqiri is unmarked but he has got to watch it all the way down onto his left foot. He side foots it in, very good, accomplished finish. It was cultured, tailored for him.

If Fulham are going to get back into the game they need to get people with Aleksandar Mitrovic, get players in and around him. He will bring people into the play and knock down headers.

Trent Alexander-Arnold does a dummy and it's Mohamed Salah who takes it. But his curling effort flies way wide and the chance is gone.

The second half has started off with yet more Liverpool possession. Xherdan Shaqiri eventually wins a free-kick on the right as he's fouled by Calum Chambers.

Trent Alexander-Arnold will whip one in.

Pete Croker: You win some you lose some. Liverpool had a goal ruled out last weekend which should of stood!

MK, Gateshead: Liverpool lucky? Do people forget the offside goal against Arsenal last week ?

It's been very quiet at Anfield today. A few heavy Saturday nights maybe?

No changes from either team at half time. Jordan Henderson has put his trackies back on.

Liverpool's touchmap on the left shows how they dominated possession in that first half but Fulham had a number of decent chances.

Will they get a few more in this half?

Jack Walker: Another shocking refereeing decision goes against a small side... what a terrible weekend for officials this has been.

KoloKK: All 6 Fulham players, offside there. Right call.
