With the fiery fallout of their first win in four domestic games still burning, Liverpool will be back at Anfield on Premier League Matchday 12 to host a West Ham side on a five-game unbeaten run in all competitions.
The Hammers can overtake Liverpool with a win but will be wary of Mohamed Salah, who scored the only goal of the game in the Reds’ victory over Manchester City on Sunday.
Salah has not found the net more often against any team than he has against David Moyes’ men, scoring nine times in 10 league appearances against them.
Here’s how to watch Liverpool against West Ham, as well as team news and the odds on more Jurgen Klopp touchline celebrations or the visitors springing a surprise.

Liverpool vs. West Ham lineups
Jurgen Klopp makes five changes to Liverpool’s line-up for the visit of West Ham, with the absence of Diogo Jota (calf) the only one enforced upon him.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kostas Tsimikas return in the full-back positions, while Jordan Henderson comes in in central midfield.
Darwin Nunez and Fabio Carvalho are given further chances to prove their worth in a new-look forward line.
Liverpool lineup (4-2-3-1): Alisson (GK) — Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Djik, Tsimikas — Henderson, Thiago – Salah, Firmino, Carvalho – Nunez
Subs: Kelleher, Milner, Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Fabinho, Clark, Robertson, Elliott, Phillips.
David Moyes is dealt a blow with loss of Lucas Paqueta, who misses out on the squad entirely, but there is an opportunity for youngster Flynn Downes to make a start in central midfield.
Michail Antonio starts on the bench and could be an important option if the Hammers are chasing a late goal.
West Ham lineup (4-3-3): Fabianski (GK) — Johnson, Kehrer, Zouma, Cresswell — Downes, Soucek, Rice — Bowen, Scamacca, Fornals.
Subs: Areola, Emerson, Coufal, Coventry, Lanzini, Antonio, Ogbonna, Benrahma, Randolph.
Liverpool vs. West Ham betting odds
Liverpool have won nine of their past 12 meetings with West Ham, their only loss during that run coming in a 3-1 defeat at the London Stadium last season.
West Ham arrive in search of only their second win in 50 visits to Liverpool and are in good form, winning four games in a row before Declan Rice’s second-half equaliser earned them a 1-1 draw at Southampton on Sunday.
Gamblers looking for a goalscorer might find interest in that Salah record against West Ham. The Egypt talisman has scored in four of his past five home appearances in this fixture.
