Liverpool vs West Ham predicted line-ups: Team news ahead of Premier League fixture tonight

Liverpool will look to continue their push on all fronts when they return to Premier League action tonight at home to West Ham.

Jurgen Klopp’s side won the Carabao Cup last weekend when they edged Chelsea in a thrilling final before advancing in the FA Cup with a 2-1 win over Norwich.

The Reds then host Inter Milan in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie on Tuesday, but will first look to cut Manchester City’s lead at the top of the Premier League table to three points with a win.

To do so, the Reds will have to get revenge on West Ham, who inflicted their first defeat of the season at the London Stadium in early November and remain in contention for the Premier League’s top four.

Here’s everything you need to know before the match this evening.
