Predicted Starting Lineups & Team News

Liverpool (4-2-3-1): Alisson; Dominik Szoboszlai, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Milos Kerkez; Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister; Mohamed Salah, Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo; Hugo Ekitike

Defensive pair Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni won’t feature due to knee injuries. Midfielder Wataru Endo and striker Alexander Isak are also out due to long-term injuries.

Full-back Jeremie Frimpong could return for the West Ham game and midfielder Florian Wirtz missed the Forest game with a back injury.

Arne Slot explained that Wirtz was left out as a precaution and said, “We don't think it is very serious, but he felt his back too much during the warm-up.

“He wasn't able to be 100 per cent or even close, so we decided not to play him. We hope and expect he will be able to be with us again next week.”

West Ham (4-2-3-1): Mads Hermansen; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Axel Disasi, El Hadji Malick Diouf; Mateus Fernandes, Soungoutou Magassa; Jarrod Bowen, Tomas Soucek, Crysencio Summerville; Taty Castellanos

Midfielder Freddie Potts is suspended. Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski is ruled out with a lower back problem and Felipe is unlikely to feature due to a calf injury.

Verdict

Liverpool v West Ham

Liverpool have winning momentum in the Premier League and control games at Anfield. West Ham have struggled away against high-quality opponents and a high-scoring home win is the best bet.
