Correct score prediction: Liverpool 3-1 West Ham
Liverpool managed to score at least three times in three of their last four meetings with West Ham and the Reds should be in total command against a lacklustre Hammers outfit again here.

- HOME: 2/7 (1.29) – 77.8%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change
Liverpool have lost three of their last four games in all competitions, however, the Reds should be rested and ready to pursue victory on Sunday and the hosts have been given a 77.8% chance of success.
West Ham have won only twice in their last ten attempts in the league, so it comes as little surprise to see the Irons installed as 17/2 underdogs here. Read more of our best football predictions and Premier League analysis on our dedicated page.

Liverpool preview: Reds at close to full strength

Predicted lineup: Alisson (GK), Jones, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo, Jota

Player to watch – Mohamed Salah
While it seems unimaginative to pick out Liverpool’s star man as a player to watch, Mohamed Salah’s record against West Ham is deserving of this spotlight ahead of the teams’ clash on Sunday.

West Ham will fear Mo
Egyptian winger Salah has scored a sensational 11 career goals for Liverpool in previous outings against West Ham and two of those efforts were plundered this season in meaty Reds wins over the Irons in the Premier League (5-0) and Carabao Cup (5-1). Fresh from inking a new two-year deal with Liverpool, Salah should have a kick in his step on Sunday.
