Tottenham ended up sharing the spoils in their previous Premier League game against Crystal Palace, with Jeffrey Schlupp scoring a late equaliser to nullify Harry Kane's opener. But Liverpool failed to take advantage of the draw. A win against Fulham away could have seen the defending Premier League champions claim the top spot with a two-point lead over Spurs, but instead, the Reds ended up sharing points with the hosts.

Interestingly, both sides share the same number of wins (7), draws (4) and losses (1). However, Mourinho's men lead the charts due to a better goal-difference ratio, having conceded eight goals less than Liverpool's tally of 18 goals.
