Premier League football is back! After the two week break due the FA Cup fixtures, an inform Liverpool side prepare for the visit of West Ham at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.
Liverpool will be going into the match as favourites due their recent form which has seen them score seven goals in two games, conceding zero goals in the process.
Jurgen Klopp will want his players to go out and continue to play the free flowing, attacking football that they have all season.
West Ham, who come into this game in 12th place, could see themselves climb into the top half of the table with a win at Anfield. The Hammer should be coming into this game thinking they can cause a upset due their recent form at Anfield, where the’ve not lost during their last three visits.
Liverpool team news
Liverpool came out of their game with Porto last week unscathed and will be at full strength. The long awaited return of English full back Nathaniel Clyne could be a possibility after he returned to first team training last week.
West Ham team news
The Hammers will still be missing Arthur Masuaku, who is curently serving his six match suspension, as well as Andy Carroll and Pedro Obiang, who are both suffering long term injuries. Manuel Lanzini and Winston Reid both remain in doubt having both returned from a hamstring injury and a throat infection, respectively.
My prediction
Liverpool 3 – 1 West Ham
