Preview
Fulham head into this after a final pre-season clash against Villarreal, which ended 1-1 last month.
Parejo and Mitrovic scored for either side to ensure a decent end to the pre-season for Fulham.
The Cottagers return to the Premier League after finishing off as EFL Champions last season and aspire to step up and make a difference.
Mitrovic once again sets out to lead the pack after enjoying a stellar 2021-22 season, where he struck 42 goals in 44 appearances.
On the other hand, Liverpool began their season with the Community Shield victory over Man City and continue taking major strides.
The Reds secured a 2nd place finish last season after losing by a sole point and want to convert these minor misses into major success.
Once again, Liverpool is tipped as favourites for the EPL title and look to justify that tag with inspirational performances.
Both these teams last met in the EPL in March 2021, where Fulham won 1-0 at Anfield.

Liverpool possible 11:
Becker, Robertson, van Dijk, Matip, Alexander-Arnold, Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago, Salah, Nunez and Diaz
Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Liverpool
Liverpool has far too much quality for the hosts but we still see this going down to the wire.
Fulham has the home support and electrifying form of Mitrovic alongside some other quality players. But Liverpool may do just enough to start off well in the Premier League by taking home the points.
Players to watch out for: Mitrovic, Mbabu, Nunez and Salah.
