Saturday's 4-0 victory over Fulham lifted the Reds into fourth place but with the situation so tight at the top - and Arsenal having a match in hand even after their trip to Chelsea - positions can change very quickly.

Just four points separate third and 10th place and two bad results can see teams quickly drop down the table.

Next Saturday's trip to struggling Charlton is the start of seven matches in 22 days, which includes the Carling Cup quarter-final and FA Cup third round ties at home to Arsenal.
