Liverpool vs West Ham – The 1-0 victory over champions Manchester City by Liverpool on Sunday afternoon was their best performance of the year.
Jurgen Klopp’s team, which had previously won just two of the opening eight league games, may possibly find that this is the turning point of the entire season. The Reds are currently 8th in the league, 10 points behind Manchester City, but they still have one game left to play.
Liverpool’s title hopes would be revived with a victory at West Ham on Wednesday night, especially given the advantageous matchups that are still ahead before the World Cup, if the deficit were to be reduced to seven points.
Liverpool are therefore the overwhelming favourites to beat West Ham at home in order to follow up the massive triumph. The Hammers haven’t exactly been outstanding so far this season.
They played only a 1-1 draw on the road against Southampton on Sunday, continuing their trend of inconsistent performances. The team led by David Moyes is now ranked 12th in the league. In their previous three road games, they managed just one point while scoring just twice.
In addition to being without Diogo Jota, Liverpool is also missing Luis Diaz at this time. Nevertheless, after a sluggish start to the season, their Egyptian King is back in shape.
In his last two outings for the Reds across all competitions, Mohamed Salah scored four goals, including a hat-trick off the bench in the away victory over Rangers in the UEFA Champions League.
