Premier League enters its 35th week as West Ham welcome Liverpool to London Stadium on Saturday by 12:30pm.

Liverpool have only scored six goals in their last six matches across all competitions to a backdrop of 12.2 worth of non-penalty expected goals and 113 shots, which has been described as a miserable underperformance.

Jorgen Klopp who departs Anfield at the end of the season is hoping to win banking on Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah to take responsibility. 

Nunez is the definition of wasteful and Salah just clearly is not fully fit, according to Sky Sports.

Klopp’s persistence with the pair has probably cost Liverpool a shot at the title. 

With West Ham’s current deficiencies and David Moyes seemingly set for the boot, added to Liverpool’s season being all but done with, this game might drift into a low-key spectacle.

Possible line up

West Ham XI: Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Ogbonna, Emerson Palmieri, Soucek, Alvarez, Bowen, Lucas Paqueta, Kudus, Antonio

Subs: Fabianski, Johnson, Cresswell, Ward-Prowse, Phillips, Cornet, Ings, Casey, Mubama

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, van Dijk, Robertson, Mac Allister, Endo, Gravenberch, Elliott, Gakpo, Diaz

Subs: Gomez, Konate, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Salah, Jones, Tsimikas, Bajcetic, Kelleher

West Ham vs Liverpool prediction

Liverpool need to pick themselves up and get a result to keep any faint hope of a title win alive. Klopp will have his players in no doubt over what’s at stake, despite the disappointment of midweek.

West Ham were dead on their feet from the off against Crystal Palace and, with David Moyes potentially heading out, you fear for a repeat performance lacking in drive.

Liverpool to win, 2-0.

Head to head history and results

Moyes has only beaten Klopp once in their 13 meetings, a 3-2 win to the Hammers in 2021 at London Stadium.

West Ham wins: 29

Draws: 37

Liverpool wins: 83
