    Former Middlesbrough & Fulham keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Fulham have started well and that has been promising, but without any edge or bite. No end product.

    They are the things you look at. They need to be more precise.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Fulham have a shot from outside the box deflected wide for a corner, which is cleared by Liverpool.

    Something for the home crowd to cheer, encouraging signs for the Cottagers.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool keep the pressure on and Mohamed Salah heads a Trent Alexander-Arnold cross over when Jordan Henderson was calling for him to leave it.

    Andy Robertson gets into the final third and dinks a cross beyond the far post but Fulham left-back Antonee Robinson manages to head it clear.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool are enjoying more of the ball higher up the pitch. Still far from their free-flowing best though.

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16 mins

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Kenny Tete goes in late on Luis Diaz. The Dutch full-back is booked, one of the clearest yelow cards you'll ever see.

  7. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 15 mins

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Andy Robertson is way offside before the ball comes back out to Luis Diaz.

    Credit to the Colombian forward, he curls a beauty inside the far post, but it's not going to count as the flag eventually went up.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool have had 70% of possession so far, but they're being harried everywhere they go by newly-promoted Fulham.

    The Cottagers look very organised and the Reds aren't quite back in their full stride yet.

    It's a nice tempo for the way Fulham are doing things, aggressive as they should be.

  10. 'They need someone up front who will take half a chance'published at 10 mins

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Mark Schwarzer
    Former Middlesbrough & Fulham keeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Today, Aleksandar Mitrovic is coming up against a Liverpool side who have probably the best central defender on the planet in Virgil van Dijk. In that moment he had, he had an opportunity and he wasn't decisive enough, he wasn't on the front foot. He showed some hesitation and it gets eaten up.

    Nothing came of it and that's where Fulham will find themselves in a lot of bother this season. They need someone up front who is going to take half a chance, a quarter of a chance and make something out of it

    Fulham play in Harrison Reed in the left side of the Liverpool box but his cross goes straight into the arms of visiting goalkeeper Alisson.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Fulham win the game's first corner and it's headed clear by Joel Matip.

    The Cottagers steer it back in but this time Virgil van Dijk clears the danger.

  13. ouch!

    Fulham aren't giving Thiago Alcantara much time to spray his passes about.

    Two home players clatter into the Spanish midfielder to give away a free-kick in the Liverpool half.

    It was a poor pass from Trent Alexander-Arnold and it was intercepted. Aleksandar Mitrovic found himself in a position where he just didn't look confident. It just felt like he didn't want to have the shot and then it was a poor shot in the end.

    Fulham 0-0 Liverpool

    Interesting... Aleksandar Mitrovic, Fulham's 43-goal man from last season, spots an early opening to run into the Liverpool box and he pokes the ball wide inside the opening minute.

    It is a tough game on paper for Fulham. I was with Marco Silva last week; he was talking about frustrations at not bringing new signings into the club.

    You look at this Fulham side, are they good enough to stay up with this current side? On paper, no, but they'll be out to prove us wrong.

    Fulham v Liverpool (12:30 BST)

    Chris Sutton
    Former Premier League striker

    Ali is right to say I'm not going to follow Lawro and back Liverpool to win every week - I want to banish that kind of bias!

    But he's wrong to think I'm going to say they will lose this one.

    Liverpool were very good in the Community Shield and Saturday is going to be a difficult day for Fulham on their return to the top flight. I think they will struggle all season too.

    Sutton's prediction: 0-3.

    BBC commentator Ali Bruce-Ball prediction: Marco Silva hasn't been very optimistic talking about his squad recently as Fulham try to end their yo-yo existence, bouncing between the Premier League and the Championship. Liverpool will be ruthless and I think this has the potential to be a bit of a mauling. 0-4

    A new season means a new Premier League predictions expert, and Premier League winner Chris Sutton is taking on the challenge from Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson form the 2022-23 campaign.
