West Ham United v Liverpool: match preview

West Ham United v Liverpool
West Ham United v Liverpool: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Liverpool have toiled at Anfield recently, but their away form offers encouragement before a tricky London Stadium test. With the top-four race increasingly hard to read, a fourth successive away win would calm Liverpool’s nerves. West Ham, however, are poised to trip them up after last week’s win over Tottenham. Slaven Bilic is yet to lose to Jürgen Klopp in four meetings. Jacob Steinberg
