West Ham vs Liverpool line-ups and team news confirmed: Marko Arnautovic out

Marko Arnautovic has failed a fitness test to feature for West Ham as title favourite Liverpool visit the London Stadium.

The Austrian picked up an injury during the 3-0 loss at Wolves and while scans showed just heavy bruising tonight's game has come too soon. Lukasz Fabianski and Aaron Cresswell has been passed fit.

Samir Nasri will also miss out with a calf concern. Andy Carroll and Lucas Perez are on the bench.

For Liverpool, Adam Lallana is handed his first Premier League start since October as Georginio Wijnaldum misses out. The Dutchman partners Naby Keita and Fabinho in midfield, with the fearsome front three all starting.
