It hasn’t lost to the Hammers since 2016, going 8-2-0 and outscoring them 29-9 in the 10 meetings.

They have conceded just eight league goals, and the return of central defender Virgil Van Dijk has been a major reason for their return to form.
Why you should back West Ham
The Hammers are 10-4-2 in all competitions this season. They lost in league play to Manchester United but beat the Red Devils three days later in the League Cup. Their only other loss was a 2-1 setback to Brentford when they held 60-percent possession. They beat strong Everton and Tottenham teams 1-0 and routed Aston Villa 4-1 on their current three-game league win streak. They will be eager to prove they can compete with the big boys and will have a strong home crowd behind them. They have scored four goals in the past three meetings with the Reds.
West Ham has scored 20 goals in the 10 matches, led by Michail Antonio with six, while conceding 11. Eight other players have scored at least once, with Pablo Fornals scoring three times and Said Benrahma getting three goals and three assists. Liverpool is banged up, especially in midfield, and will be missing Roberto Firmino (hamstring) from the attack. The Hammers are third in the league in total shots (163) and are putting more than 31 percent on net.
