MAY 9: FULHAM v LIVERPOOL

TWO of the Premier League's form sides meet at Craven Cottage on Monday night and it's difficult to split the sides.

Fulham still have a chance of finishing a joint best seventh in the table after winning their last two games 3-0.

Liverpool can end up as high as fifth after being transformed by the arrival of Kenny Dalglish.

One problem for the Reds has been their away form and four wins all season is a poor return. Fulham is never an easy place to visit but with Dalglish still keen to impress the club's owners I can see his side coming away with a point.

Fulham are a best 85-40 with Chandler while Liverpool are 6-4 with the likes of Ladbrokes and Paddy Power with the draw 23-10 (various).

Bobby Zamora's return has resulted in more goals for Fulham and is 7-1 with Blue Square, Betfred and Chandler to score first and 9-4 at Coral to net at any time.

If you a bigger price consider but Brede Hangeland each way at 12-1 with William Hill. The big centre-half is always a threat at set-pieces and netted his fourth of the season in the last home meeting against Bolton. He is 33-1 at Blue Square and Hills to net the opener.

Liverpool's dangermen in recent weeks have been Dirk Kuyt and Maxi Rodriguez. To score first Kuyt is 7-1 at Chandler and Maxi, who has banged in four in his last two games, as big as 14-1 with bet365.

Surprisingly, only one of the last eight meetings have featured both teams to score. However, that was the last clash at Craven Cottage which the home side won 3-1.

I'm going for a score draw here and both teams to score pays 10-11 at Skybet.

If both teams score it will be a headache for bookies after all 18 top-flight sides hit the target at the weekend.

This last happened in November and the accer pays about 500-1. Betfred have already paid out more then £2m on their goals galore coupon this weekend and fear more losses at Craven Cottage.
