A win over the Cottagers by any margin will give the Reds their biggest goal difference (currently +16) and equal their highest points tally (30) ever in a Premier League campaign after 12 games.

And should Klopp's side keep a clean sheet against bottom-side Fulham, they will become the first LFC team ever to have conceded as few as five goals at this stage of a Premier League season.
