West Ham United vs Liverpool Prediction and Betting Tips | 7th November
Both West Ham United and Liverpool have been in impressive form of late and the two sides will lock horns at the London Stadium on Sunday.
A late Tomas Soucek own goal saw West Ham having to settle for a draw in their midweek Europa League encounter against Genk. But that's nothing to lose their sleep over as they still sit atop Group H, four points clear of second-placed Dinamo Zagreb after four games.
"It was a test, it really was. We didn’t start the game as well as we have done, but credit to Genk because they did... I’m not disappointed. I’m thinking that if we win at home and draw away then we’re doing ok."
🗣 The boss' thoughts following tonight's draw in Belgium...
West Ham's thumping 4-1 win over Aston Villa last weekend is more pertinent in the context of this weekend's clash against Liverpool. David Moyes' men are currently fourth in the Premier League table with 20 points and are only two behind their Sunday opponents who are currently second.
The Hammers have won four and lost one of their last five Premier League matches. The London Stadium is a difficult ground to go to and this could be a real test for Jurgen Klopp's side.
Liverpool made it two in a row over Atletico Madrid in midweek with a comfortable 2-0 win at Anfield thanks to goals from Sadio Mane and Diogo Jota. They are now unbeaten in 25 matches across all competitions.
Jurgen Klopp's men are also the leading scorers in the Premier League with 29 goals in 10 matches. Mohamed Salah's form is a huge positive for the Merseysiders and Firmino, Mane and Jota have all looked to be in great touch too.
There is no doubt that the clash against West Ham United will be a delectable one for fans and neutrals.
