Alex Iwobi has boldly declared Fulham’s readiness to face Liverpool in yet another important Premier League clash at Anfield on Saturday.
The Nigerian international, known for his fearless attitude, insists the Cottagers are fully prepared to take on the table-toppers in a match that could shake up the title race, footballrover reports.
Fulham’s remarkable form this season
The Marco Silva side has been impressive this season, amassing 23 points from 15 games and sitting just four points behind fourth-placed Manchester City.
Much of their success can be attributed to Alex Iwobi, whose consistent performances have been very crucial.
The Super Eagles star has started every league game, contributing five goals and three assists—his best-ever tally after 15 Premier League matches since his debut in 2015.
Fresh off a 1-1 draw with Arsenal last weekend, Fulham is determined to maintain their momentum.
However, their next challenge is against a strong Arne Slot side, a team Iwobi has yet to score against despite 14 previous encounters.
Alex Iwobi’s fearless statement on facing the Merseyside
Speaking ahead of the clash, Iwobi expressed confidence in Fulham’s ability to compete against the league’s elite, stating,
“It shows we have the ability to compete with anyone. We are not scared. Hopefully it will be the same against Liverpool. We are going there to get a result,” Iwobi told the Daily Mail.
Despite their host’s dominant form, Iwobi believes Fulham can defy expectations and deliver a performance capable of upsetting the title race.
A record to break against Liverpool
While Iwobi has provided four assists in matches against the Reds, his last goal contribution came during the 2018/2019 season.
The Nigerian will aim to end this drought and make a decisive impact as Fulham look to secure a historic result at Anfield.
