Team News

Liverpool
West Ham
  • Captain Virgil van Dijk returns for Liverpool after serving his suspension for abusive language and behaviour towards an official following his red card against Newcastle.
  • Trent Alexander-Arnold will be assessed ahead of the game but looks to have recovered from his hamstring injury in time.
  • Ibrahima Konate impressed from the bench against Wolves and will likely start here.
  • Summer signing Konstantinos Mavropanos impressed in the Europa League and may star for the Hammers.
  • As did Mohammed Kudus who is also available for David Moyes' side.
  • Edson Alvarez will be assessed but may miss out due to fatigue.

Prediction

  • Just three days after European duties for both sides, Liverpool welcome David Moyes' West Ham to Anfield.
  • The hosts were victorious on the road in the Europa League on Thursday with a 3-1 comeback win against LASK. Liverpool are unbeaten in the league so far with four wins a one draw.
  • West Ham also won 3-1 in their Europa League opener at the London Stadium with goals from Mohammed Kudus, Tomas Soucek and an own goal.
  • In the league, West Ham have lost just one of their first five games with a defeat to Manchester City last time out, but they have recorded wins against Chelsea, Brighton and Luton.
  • James Ward-Prowse has hit the ground running since joining the Hammers in the summer with two goals and five assists in his first five apps in all competitions.
  • Liverpool have won their last 6 home matches against West Ham in all competitions and it wouldn't be a surprise if we see another home win here.

  • Has Salah ever played a bad game? It's unreal and it's quite amazing that he's never been in the race for a Ballon d'Or. He's absolutely brilliant.

  • Szoboszlai is absolute class

  • draw or liverpool by a single goal. All together quarantees profit

  • Liverpool should win this but I hope for an upset, all top sides need to chill for the blues to rise lol

  • Goal/goal and over 2.5

  • West ham may cause problems especially with Ward Prowse passing and free kicks.

  • 2-2
