Currently, Liverpool are second in the Premier League (60 points/26 matches), 6 points behind Manchester City but have played 1 match less. If Manchester City lost to the same city team, Jurgen Klopp and his team will be more determined to defeat West Ham to shorten the score gap, thereby making the race for the championship more attractive and dramatic.
According to coach Kloop, in this match, Liverpool will not have the services of the duo Joel Matip and Thiago Alcantara. Accordingly, Matip will continue to be a target due to illness. Meanwhile, midfielder Thiago is in need of medical attention due to a hamstring injury in the warm-up before Liverpool's defeat to Chelsea in the FA Cup final last weekend.
However, the performance of the pillar stars is still stable, with almost full reserve and replacement options. It is not difficult to understand that with home advantage, Liverpool fully held the door to win all 3 points.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the front line, West Ham have had inconsistent form when they just beat Wolves in the Premier League but immediately lost to Southampton in the FA Cup. Coach David Moyes has reason to worry as Tomas Soucek has just suffered a head injury and is unlikely to feature.
Although West Ham was once the name that made Liverpool " offended" many times and was considered a "dirty" team in the Premier League, against a Liverpool team in stable form, Anfield was the place that will leave the away team empty-handed in this round.
The match between Liverpool vs West Ham in round 28 of the Premier League will take place at 0:30 am tomorrow morning (Vietnam time), March 6 and will be broadcast live on K+ channel.
