West Ham vs Liverpool predictions for Sunday’s Premier League match at the London Stadium. Liverpool put the last unbeaten Premier League record on the line when they lock horns with the Hammers. Read on for our free predictions and betting tips.
West Ham vs Liverpool Key Stats:
West Ham have come out of the blocks quickly this season and the Hammers have tasted defeat just twice in 16 fixtures across three separate competitions since the summer.
In the Premier League, David Moyes’ men have won three games on the spin, edging out Everton (1-0) and Tottenham (1-0) before a resounding 4-1 triumph at Aston Villa last time out.
At the London Stadium the Irons still have wrinkles to smooth however, and West Ham have dropped points in three of their last four Premier League tussles on home soil – a record that Liverpool will hope to exploit on Sunday.
Liverpool hold the Premier League’s only remaining unbeaten record this season and having qualified from their Champions League group in rapid fashion thanks to a win over Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, things could hardly be going smoother for the Reds.
Jurgen Klopp’s title-chasers are in the midst of a 20-game run in the Premier League without losing in a sequence stretching all the way back to mid-March last season, and the Merseysiders look ready to extend that surge this weekend.
Liverpool have a superb recent record against West Ham (eight wins from nine) and in Mohamed Salah they have a world-class match-winner who can turn games in their favour on a whim.
Liverpool’s dominant recent record in encounters with the Hammers is difficult to ignore and though West Ham’s form is also strong, they could struggle again to match the Reds’ superior class.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have won eight of their last nine skirmishes with West Ham and when you also consider that the Irons have won only once in their last four attempts at home in the league, siding with the visitors on Sunday makes sense.
Alongside our away win prediction at a generous looking 1.73, we also recommend backing Mohamed Salah to make his presence felt in the anytime goalscorer stakes at the same price, 1.73.
Salah has notched an incredible nine times in his last eight Premier League appearances for Liverpool and he found the net in each of his last four runouts against West Ham.
A sensational performance ?

Naby Keita, Harvey Elliott and James Milner are all out for Liverpool, while Alex Oxlade Chamberlain, Roberto Firmino, Joe Gomez and Curtis Jones are all considered doubts. Fabinho returned to action in midweek and the Brazilian enforcer should keep his place on Sunday.
