Liverpool is gearing up for an important clash against Fulham in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup as they continue their pursuit of silverware this season. After a disappointing campaign last year, Jurgen Klopp's revamped side is currently in excellent form, sitting at the top of the Premier League table and progressing to the last 16 of the Europa League.
The Reds are the favourites going into this match at 1/3 with Betfred to take the lead in the first-leg while Fulham are 6/1 and a draw is 18/5.

Despite facing a first-half onslaught from the Gunners, Klopp's side managed to survive and secure a 2-0 win with two late goals.
