Liverpool and Chelsea Stumble in the Premier League with Home Draws
- On Saturday, Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola saw his side held to a 0-0 draw by Fulham at Anfield, continuing an underwhelming Premier League start for the expected title challengers.
- Iraola cited the 60 to 70-hour turnaround following Wednesday's Champions League victory over Atletico Madrid as the primary factor, saying "Today we lacked a lot of freshness."
- Liverpool struggled to create clear openings, with Victor Munoz hitting the crossbar and Alexander Isak forcing a save from Bernd Leno, while Fulham appeared the more threatening side.
- Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa praised his squad's character after securing their first point under his leadership, stating, "We were a little bit unlucky but if we continue playing in this way, I think we will win games."
- The team has drawn three of its first four Premier League matches under Iraola, and while they remain unbeaten, they are failing to meet expectations as a title challenger.
