Liverpool have been on a great run, which has thrown them right in the title race after seeming out of it towards the end of 2021. They will be out to enhance their chances when they play host to West Ham United in their next game. Liverpool go to the game on 60 points and in second place, with a game in hand over leaders Manchester City. West Ham United in the meantime, are fifth on 45 points. The hosts head into this game right on the back of winning the League Cup and will be very confident here. A run of seven clean sheets in the last 10 matches, and 13 straight matches unbeaten is definitely enough to place Liverpool as favorites here. That’s not all; they have six straight wins in the Premier League and eight straight home wins in the league, with six clan sheets. This season, Liverpool have suffered just two losses in the league, and one of these defeats, their first of the season, was inflicted by West Ham United. The Reds have scored the most goals (70) in the league this season.

West Ham United are up there contesting with the big boys; they are firmly in the top four race and their win over Wolverhampton Wanderers strengthened this. The first team to beat Liverpool in the league this season, West Ham know they have what it takes to stand up to the title contenders. They go to this game unbeaten in the last five matches, three of them wins, and they’ll be aiming at just their second win in 12 meetings with Liverpool. Their 1-0 win over Wolves was hard fought and it turns out to be very crucial in their top four ambitions. One aspect that has really improved at West Ham is their scoring form; they go into this game having failed to score just once in the last 10 matches – their 1-0 loss to Manchester United. However, they’ve only scored more than a goal in one of their last five league matches and their last 10 league games have come with only three clean sheets. West Ham haven’t been at their best away from home; in the last eight league matches on the road, they have just two wins, and failed to score in four.
