Liverpool host West Ham at Anfield tonight as Jurgen Klopp’s side look to close the gap to Premier League leaders Manchester City to three points.
Fresh from winning the season’s first piece of domestic silverware in the Carabao Cup final, the Reds progressed to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup with a 2-1 win over Norwich on Wednesday.
And as Liverpool continue to push on all fronts, their match against the Hammers will be followed by Tuesday’s clash with Inter Milan at Anfield in the Champions League round of 16.
First though, they must face the test of David Moyes’ side, who beat Liverpool 3-2 at the London Stadium to inflict their first Premier League defeat of the season in December.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match tonight.
