Fulham vs Liverpool Betting Tips : BTTS
Taking into account that the Cottagers have little to lose in the second leg, their objective will be to erase their opponent's lead in the semifinal, but the task at hand will be far from easy as they take on a side exuding confidence, indicating that a high-scoring affair could once again be in the cards on Tuesday.
On home soil, Fulham have improved things significantly of late in terms of results, winning five of their last six home games in all competitions, with one of those successes coming in the London derby on New Year's Eve when they stunned everyone with a narrow win over 2-1 over title-chaser Arsenal.
The productive offense, responsible for an impressive 15 goals in the last five Premier League affairs, is a key factor in their recent outstanding home performance, and as they approach the second leg of the Carabao Cup semifinal, the London club anticipates finding a path to the goal, especially with their track record of breaching the Reds' rearguard in each of the last eight clashes at Craven Cottage.
Despite being without Mohamed Salah, who is on AFCON international duty, in recent weeks, the Egyptian star's absence does not seem to have dampened the creativity in Liverpool's final third, as they proved with three straight victories against Arsenal (2-0 / FA Cup), Fulham (2-1 / Carabao Cup), while at the weekend they ran over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium with a devastating 4-0.
Entering the Carabao Cup rematch on the back of five consecutive victories, scoring at least two goals in each of them, Jurgen Klopp's men are determined to assert their dominance against the Cottagers for the third time this season and wrap up the job in London to secure their 14th final appearance in the tournament's history.
Despite proving more successful in duels with Fulham during the current campaign, it's essential not to overlook that the Reds came from behind on both occasions to claim victories, including a dramatic seven-goal triumph in their first league meeting secured in the dying moments. Adding to the equation that seven of the last eight face-offs between these rivals on London soil featured goals from both ends, we believe that Fulham and Liverpool, both highly productive in attack of late, could illuminate the scoreboard at Craven Cottage.

Liverpool team news
Faced with the absence of both left-backs, Andrew Robertson and Konstantinos Tsimikas, owing to injury concerns, all eyes are on Joe Gomez to fill that position, as Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo strive for a spot in the starting lineup following their impactful contributions off the bench in the first leg.
Bringing a wealth of experience to the midfield, Wataru Endo proudly wears the colors of Japan in the Asian Cup, contrasting with Mohamed Salah, who made the tough decision to step back from Egypt's national team due to a hamstring injury suffered in AFCON's group stage.
