Liverpool and Fulham End in Goalless Stalemate at Anfield

Liverpool managed to keep their unbeaten home record intact on September 12, 2026, but the result was not what they hoped for. A 0-0 draw against Fulham in round four of the 2026/27 Premier League season marked Liverpool's third consecutive draw at home.

This result leaves Andoni Iraola’s side in sixth place with six points from four games, while Fulham sits in 18th with just one point from four outings, still searching for their first win of the campaign under manager Álvaro Arbeloa.

The match had the energy of a chess match, with neither side able to break the deadlock. Fulham's best moment came from a Victor Munoz header that rattled the crossbar. Liverpool showed more urgency in the second half, but possession and shot counts were roughly even across the ninety minutes.

Referee Thomas Bramall had a quiet afternoon, with no red cards recorded. The presence of Arbeloa in the opposing dugout added narrative depth, as the former Liverpool defender returned to Anfield as a manager, successfully keeping a clean sheet against a side that had shown promising form earlier in the season.

With six points from four games, Liverpool's position is less than flattering, while Fulham's single point places them in the relegation zone, a challenging situation for teams that start a Premier League campaign this slowly. The Munoz crossbar moment will linger for Fulham, while Liverpool faces questions about their attacking cohesion against a Fulham side that defended compactly and effectively.
