Liverpool are set to take on West Ham United at home on Saturday and Jurgen Klopp’s men will be hoping to pick up their third win on the trot.
The Reds are fresh out of a 5-0 victory against FC Porto in the UEFA Champions League and Klopp is unlikely to make a whole lot of changes to his first eleven for Saturday’s fixture. We take a look at Liverpool’s predicted line up vs West Ham.
LIVERPOOL TEAM NEWS:
The German manager is more than likely to name an unchanged back four for the game against the Hammers. January signing Virgil Van Dijk will partner Dejan Lovren in central defence while Robertson and Alexander-Arnold will be on fullback duties.
Emre Can missed the match against FC Porto due to a one-game suspension but the German International will return against West Ham – replacing James Milner in defensive midfield. Henderson will retain his place in central midfield while Jurgen Klopp may try and refresh things a bit by opting to start with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in place of Wijnaldum.
Liverpool’s front three have been prolific this season and it’s an absolute no-brainer that Klopp will start with the same trio of Salah, Mane and Firmino against the Hammers.
LIVERPOOL’S PREDICTED LINE UP VS WEST HAM:
Goalkeeper: Karius.
Defence: Robertson, Lovren, Van Dijk, Arnold.
Midfield: Can, Henderson, Chamberlain.
Attack: Salah, Mane, Firmino.
