West Ham team news

Although West Ham did not find a winner in the 0-0 draw with AFC Bournemouth last weekend, it was an impressive performance. Therefore, Nuno Espirito Santo's side will likely be unchanged. Pablo is still out, and there are rumors that Dinos Mavropanos could be out, but this has not been confirmed.

Liverpool team news

Liverpool are the defending Premier League champions, but after a bad run of form, their best hope is finishing in a Champions League place. Arne Slot's side is missing Alexander Isak, Giovanni Leoni, Conor Bradley, and Waturu Endo. There are also concerns that Florian Wirtz will be out after missing their last game with a muscle problem.

Liverpool vs West Ham prediction

We are at the point in the season where West Ham needs to pull off some surprise results if Nuno's side is to survive relegation. Liverpool's form has been mixed recently, with three wins and two defeats in their last five games. The Reds were not that impressive as they defeated Nottingham Forest last time out. As West Ham are on good form, I am going to back the Hammers to pull off a shock 1-0 win at Anfield this Saturday.
