West Ham Preview – Can West Ham surprise the leaders?
Having suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat away from home at Leicester City last time out in the Premier League and 3 matches without a win in the top flight, this looks highly unlikely despite West Ham returning to their London Stadium for this important clash.
The hosts have managed to collect just 1 win out of their last 6 matches (or 2 wins from their last 9 matches) overall in the top flight while recent defeats to Crystal Palace, Leicester City (at home), Sheffield United and Leicester City (away) suggest that The Hammers could have their work cut out here to just avoid defeat.
The positive angle is that West Ham are unbeaten in their last two matches at home which includes a 4-0 thrashing of Bournemouth and a point in a 1-1 draw with David Moyes’s former club, Everton.
The bad news is that these were against teams sitting in the bottom half of the table and their record against Liverpool hasn’t been great as they’ve lost 4 of their last 5 meetings against their visitors.
Liverpool Preview – Back to business for Liverpool?
After their 2-2 draw with League One outfit, Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup on the weekend, it’s back to the business of moving a step closer to winning their first Premier League title for Liverpool who’ll also be seeking a 15th straight win in the top flight as well.
Liverpool hold a seemingly unassailable 16-point lead over 2nd placed Manchester City ahead of this trip down to London to face West Ham with Liverpool not only possessing a 100% record at Anfield but the visitors have also won 10 of their 11 away matches in the top flight too.
An impressive away record of 10-1-0 23/6 includes winning their last 6 away matches on the trot, scoring a total of 14 goals and conceding just 3 in reply, while a Liverpool win and Over 2.5 goals has happened in 8 of their 11 away matches so far this season.
A Liverpool win and Over 2.5 goals scored has also occurred in 4 of the last 5 meetings against West Ham.
