Liverpool welcome the challenge of West Ham United to Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday evening. Jurgen Klopp’s side have defensive problems, but still have enough quality in attack.

Liverpool Form & News

Liverpool have not lost in their last four fixtures. Their run started with the dramatic 2-2 Merseyside Derby draw with Everton at Goodison Park.

They have since won three in a row, starting with a 1-0 victory over Ajax Amsterdam and then a hard-fought 2-1 win over Sheffield United.

During the week, the Reds huffed and puffed against Midtjylland in the UEFA Champions League. They did end up winning, however, with Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah scoring in the 2-0 victory.

Liverpool are unbeaten in 62 matches at Anfield in the Premier League.

Liverpool will be short of defensive options due to the injuries suffered by Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip and Fabinho. Joe Gomez is expected to be partnered by Rhys Williams at the heart of the defence.

Konstantinos Tsimikas, Naby Keita and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are all expected to miss out.

West Ham United Form & News

After a poor start to the campaign, West Ham United have been excellent of late.

David Moyes’ charges are unbeaten in their last four fixtures. This run of form began with 4-0 and 3-0 wins over Wolves and Leicester City, respectively.

In recent matches against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City, the Hammers managed to secure draws in both.

The Hammers came back from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 with Spurs in the dying embers of the match, while last weekend they held City to a 1-1 draw.

Forward Michail Antonio is a doubt this weekend with a muscle injury. That could see Sebastien Haller make a return to the starting XI if he can prove his fitness.
