West Ham welcome Liverpool to the London Stadium in the Premier League on Sunday

 

 

 

West Ham United FC v Liverpool FC – Premier League

 

Liverpool are unbeaten in nine meetings with West Ham, winning eight of them, scoring exactly five goals in three of their last four victories.

 

The Reds have also won six of nine visits to the London Stadium, their sole defeat in Stratford a 3-2 reverse back in November 2021.

Well, where on earth do Liverpool go from here? On Wednesday night, Arne Slot’s side were beaten yet again, this time steamrollered 4-1 by PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League at Anfield. Following 3-0 defeats at the hands of Manchester City and then Nottingham Forest, the Reds have conceded three or more goals in three successive games for the first time since September 1992.

Overall, the Premier League champions have now lost nine of their last 12 matches across all competitions, their worst run since January 1954, actually relegated from the First Division back then, the club’s most-recent relegation. While a repeat of that remains unlikely, Slot’s side have slipped all the way down to 12th, closer to the bottom three than leaders Arsenal. Every week we assume that Liverpool will get back to winning ways, but they surely won’t lose this one, will they?

 

Well, West Ham United themselves had a firm grip on the crisis club baton up until recently, but are showing signs of life. Before the international break, Nuno Espírito Santo’s side claimed crucial back-to-back home wins, beating both Newcastle and Burnley, with Tomáš Souček on target in both. Prior to this, the West Ham faithful had not witnessed a home win since February.

Then, last weekend, the Hammers raced into a 2-0 lead in the pouring rain at Dean Court, Callum Wilson at the double, only for Bournemouth to fight back after the interval. In the second 45, the Cherries had 21 shots, created four big chances and accumulated and xG figure of 3.49, forcing Alphonse Areola into seven saves, making ten in total, meaning the Irons were probably quite relived to depart with a 2-2 draw, despite having led by two. This point sees West Ham climb out of the bottom three, so can they now become the latest side to defeat this beleaguered Liverpool?

Lucas Paquetá can return, having served a one-match suspension against Bournemouth, although Konstantinos Mavropanos and Oliver Scarles do remain sidelined.

Nuno Espírito Santo switched to a back three last weekend, featuring Igor Julio who started in the Premier League for the club for the first time, so will he keep his place?

 

Luís Guilherme was the other surprise starter at Dean Court, while fit again Niclas Füllkrug came off the bench, so will Nuno stick with this system?

 

West Ham United predicted lineup vs Liverpool: (5-2-3): Areola; Wan-Bissaka, Igor, Todibo, Kilman, Diouf; Potts, Fernandes; Bowen, Paquetá, Wilson.

 

West Ham player to watch vs Liverpool

 

Jarrod Bowen, as always, is West Ham’s most dangerous attacker, so can he add to his three career goals against Liverpool, all of which came in the 2023/24 season?

Arne Slot meantime remains without Giovanni Leoni, Jeremie Frimpong, Conor Bradley and Florian Wirtz, limiting his options as he seeks a winning formula.

In attack is where he does have a decision to make, with Hugo Ekitiké getting the nod on Wednesday, after Alexander Isak was pretty anonymous against Nottingham Forest, so who will lead the line here?

 

Goalkeeper Alisson missed the PSV defeat due to illness, but should return in place of Giorgi Mamardashvili. At the back, after another shambolic display by Ibrahima Konaté, could Joe Gomez or Andy Robertson come into defence? Lastly, emergency right-back Dominik Szoboszlai would sit out Wednesday’s clash with Sunderland if booked.

 

Liverpool predicted lineup vs West Ham United: (4-3-3): Alisson; Szoboszlai, Konaté, van Dijk, Robertson; Gravenberch, Mac Allister, Jones; Salah, Ekitiké, Gakpo.

 

Liverpool player to watch vs West Ham

 

Mohamed Salah has scored 13 times against West Ham to date, six of which have come at the London Stadium, so can teh Egyptian now score for the first time since 1 November?

 

West Ham vs Liverpool prediction

 

Liverpool matches are frankly impossible to predict right now, but we are booking the Reds to hae too much quality for West Ham, albeit that may be a fool’s errand: West Ham United 1-2 Liverpool.

Liverpool

Yes — there are reports linking Liverpool with Sven Botman as a possible summer transfer target, particularly if they need replacements in central defence. Here’s the latest news

🔴 Liverpool & Botman Link

Liverpool are said to be considering a bid for Newcastle United defender Sven Botman ahead of the summer 2026 transfer window. The idea being mooted in some outlets is that Botman could add experience and help mentor younger defenders (e.g., Jeremy Jacquet) if he were to move to Anfield. �

TEAMtalk +1

Liverpool’s interest appears to be part of a broader plan to strengthen centre-back options, especially with Ibrahima Konaté’s contract situation unresolved and the potential of him leaving as a free agent. �

Yardbarker +1

🔄 Konaté & Defensive Plans

Ibrahima Konaté’s contract at Liverpool is due to expire this summer, and while there have been negotiations, no new deal has been agreed yet — meaning he could leave on a free transfer if he doesn’t sign an extension. �

Anfield Watch

This has increased the likelihood that Liverpool must plan for defensive reinforcements — something that could put Botman on their radar along with other centre-back targets. �

Yardbarker

🔁 Newcastle’s Position

Botman recently signed a new long-term contract with Newcastle until 2030, which could make a move more expensive or complicated. �

Yahoo Sports

Still, reports suggest that Newcastle might struggle to keep players or resist offers if they fail to qualify for the Champions League, as missing out on European football often influences player decisions and club finances. �

Sports Boom

📰 Conflicting Coverage

Some outlets recently claimed that Liverpool’s interest has cooled, and the club may prioritise other defensive targets instead. �

Sports Mole

However, others still list Botman among players Liverpool are monitoring ahead of next summer. �

Sports Boom

🧠 Bottom Line

✔️ Botman remains a possible summer target for Liverpool if Konaté leaves.

✔️ Newcastle’s Champions League qualification (or lack thereof) could impact whether they’re willing to sell or if Botman himself is open to departing.

✔️ His recent contract extension complicates a move, but it doesn’t rule out a transfer if a suitable offer arrives.

Would you like a projected likelihood analysis based on his contract + Newcastle’s season performance?

HOW ARE LIVERPOOL NOT WINNING THIS GAME…. Florian Wirtz’s shot is tame and Guehi blocks it out for a corner kick

HOW are Liverpool not ahead here?! 😤

That moment summed it all up.

The Wirtz chance – what actually went wrong

Florian Wirtz did everything right up to the final action. The space opened on the edge of the box, Liverpool moved the ball quickly, and the shooting lane was there. But the finish? Way too tame.

Instead of whipping it across the keeper or drilling it low into the corner, Wirtz opts for placement without power. At this level, that’s basically an invitation for defenders to recover.

Credit where it’s due: Guehi 👏

Marc Guehi reads it early.

He doesn’t dive in

He holds his line

He closes the angle

By the time Wirtz shoots, Guehi is already set, making himself big and getting the block in. It’s excellent defending, but it only becomes possible because the shot lacks conviction.

The bigger Liverpool problem

This isn’t an isolated incident — it’s a pattern in the game:

Dominance without ruthlessness

Good build-up, poor end product

Too many extra touches in the box

Liverpool are getting into the right areas but playing like a team waiting for the perfect goal instead of forcing the issue.

Why Liverpool aren’t winning (yet)

No killer instinct in front of goal

Shots either blocked or too close to defenders

Final decisions a half-second late

Opposition defenders growing in confidence with every missed chance

Corner kick or not, that should’ve tested the keeper far more.

If this keeps up, it’s the kind of game where Liverpool dominate the stats… and still drop points. One moment of real quality — or one defensive mistake — is all that’s missing.

Football can be cruel like that. 😬⚽

The contract and paperwork are already in place for Liverpool to welcome back Jarell Quansah, who left Merseyside to join Bayer Leverkusen last summer, to help fill out the Reds’ thin defensive ranks

Yes — that claim lines up with multiple transfer-news reports: Liverpool could re-sign 23-year-old England centre-back Jarell Quansah from Bayer Leverkusen in future, thanks to a buy-back clause in the deal that sent him to Germany — but not immediately next season.

🔁 What’s Happening with Quansah and Liverpool

Quansah moved from Liverpool to Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2025 for a reported fee around £30m-£35m (plus add-ons), joining the Bundesliga side on a long-term contract.

As part of that transfer, Liverpool inserted a buy-back clause allowing the club to re-sign him in the future for a pre-agreed fee.

footballtransfers.com

However, the clause cannot be activated until the summer of 2027 at the earliest.

TEAM

Reports suggest the buy-back figure could be around £50m-£60m (with potential add-ons increasing the fee), although exact numbers vary across sources.

Sports Mole +1

There are also indications Liverpool have pre-agreed personal terms with Quansah should they trigger the buy-back, smoothing the path for a return.

TEAMtalk

🧠 Context for the Move

Quansah was a Liverpool academy graduate and made senior appearances before leaving, but opted for more first-team football in Germany.

Football Today

With his development in the Bundesliga and Liverpool’s evolving defensive needs, the idea of bringing him back — especially given future departures or ageing defenders — is being discussed in transfer circles.

TEAMtalk

Bottom line: the Football Insider claim that Liverpool could re-sign Quansah later isn’t unfounded — there is a buy-back clause — but any switch is realistically targeted for 2027 or beyond, not next summer.
