Liverpool vs West Ham Prediction & Betting Tips (24 September)

Liverpool missed out on its season last year and had to settle for 5th place in the Premier League with 4 units of expenditure on the 4th, last qualified for the Champions League. Still with a good squad, the Mersey club hopes to climb into the Big 4 this time, or even get involved in the fight for the title. During the first day, the Reds brought home a point from their trip to Chelsea 1-1. Since then, they have been uncompromising with successes against Bournemouth 3-1, Newcastle 1-2, Aston Villa 3-0 and Wolverhampton last weekend 1-3.

These good results allow the team to rank 3rd in the Premier League today, 2 points behind leader Manchester City. For its debut in the Europa League, Liverpool won at LASK Linz on Thursday 1-3.

Liverpool remains deprived of fragile Spanish midfielder Thiago Alcantara and influential right-back Alexander-Arnold, on the flank. On the other hand, the captain of the defense van Dijk has finished serving his suspension while his sidekick in the central hinge Konaté returned to the pitch on the last day. Recruited this summer, midfielders Mac Allister (ex-Brighton) and Szoboszlai (ex-Leipzig) are well established in Jürgen Klopp's starting 11. Up front, the essential Salah (2 goals and 4 assists in the PL) is in good form. After finding some color with the Netherlands during the break, Cody Gakpo found the net against Wolverhampton. The other attackers Diogo Jota (1 goal in PL), Luis Diaz (2 goals in PL) and Darwin Nunez (2 goals and 1 assist in PL) are also available. Like the previous day, the West coach Ham can count on its entire squad for this perilous trip to Anfield.

In midfield, recruits Edson Alvarez (ex-Ajax) and Ward-Prowse (ex-Southampton) quickly found their feet. The last city is even very influential (2 goals and 3 assists in PL). Ghanaian Kudus (ex-Ajax) started his first two Premier League matches on the bench. Former Lyonnais Paqueta (1 goal and 1 assist in PL) plays an important role for the Hammers as does winger Bowen (3 goals and 1 assist in PL). Very good against Manchester City despite the defeat, French goalkeeper Areola is now the holder.
