There is no longer any margin for error for Liverpool Football Club.
The Reds head into the weekend in third place behind Arsenal on goal difference and two points behind league leaders Manchester City.
If Liverpool drop any more points in the future, their challenge for the Premier League title will likely end.
Liverpool are -190 favorites on the three-way money line to win Sunday’s game against Fulham.

Liverpool vs Fulham predictions
Liverpool’s wheels have come off a bit.
Last weekend’s loss to Crystal Palace at Anfield not only ended their title hopes, but Liverpool were also showing some cracks before the game.
The Reds drew 2-2 with Manchester United and struggled to beat bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United in their previous game.
Most of Liverpool’s problems stem from their defensive work.
The Reds play with reckless abandon, which puts a lot of pressure on the backline, and it’s no surprise that Liverpool’s defensive numbers are poor compared to other title contenders.
The biggest question is how many quality chances the Reds allowed.
Their dynamic attack usually makes up for any defensive woes, but it’s a dangerous game to play over a long season if they want to win the league.
Fulham aren’t great at anything, but they aren’t bad either.
That also applies to their attack, which is capable enough to take advantage of this erratic Liverpool defence.
Liverpool vs Fulham picks
It may be too much to ask Fulham to play through 90 minutes, but there is certainly a chance the Cottage can make some progress early in the game.
Liverpool have gone into half-time trailing (six points) or tied (15 points) on 21 different occasions this season.
