Overview
West Ham did not know the smell of victory in the last 4 matches in the Premier League. However, with the creation of 15 points from the relegation group, The Hammers were almost safe.
With the psychology that was removed, the army of coach Graham Potter could play more comfortably. They are capable of creating more surprises in the rest of the season.
In the last match in the Premier League, Liverpool suddenly lost 2-3 against Fulham. It was the match that The Kop made many mistakes in the defense. "Red Brigade" lacks concentration after creating too big gap before Arsenal in the championship race.
Liverpool is not allowed to be subjective and mistaken, because the Premier League always has extremely unpredictable developments. However, before a completely inferior West Ham, the ability to let Liverpool drop the score is very low.
Not to mention, West Ham is also one of the 5 worst defensive teams in the Premier League this year. Therefore, their defense will be difficult to fight off the attack to 72 goals of The Kop.
Except for the Premier League, Liverpool also has no arena to strive for the rest of the season. Along with the home advantage, they can completely focus their energy on the confrontation with West Ham and win all 3 points.
Liverpool can also be confident when they have won in 16 of the last 18 encounters with West Ham in all competitions.
Human resource situation
Liverpool hopes goalkeeper Alisson Becker will return to the main arrest against West Ham. However, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Joe Gomez and Tyler Morton are not present.
