Liverpool v West Ham: match preview

Liverpool v West Ham
Liverpool v West Ham: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: Guardian

David Moyes has never won in 17 visits to Anfield with Everton, Manchester United, Sunderland and West Ham, although his current club are one of only two to defeat Liverpool since April 2021. November’s 3-2 win prevented Jürgen Klopp’s side from setting a club record of 26 games unbeaten in all competitions and exposed a set-piece frailty that has rarely been seen since. No team have recorded a league double over Liverpool during Klopp’s reign and a 12th successive victory would ensure the pressure remains firmly on Pep Guardiola’s leaders before Sunday’s Manchester derby.
