West Ham head to Liverpool in the Premier League this afternoon looking to dent the league leader’s title hopes.
Graham Potter has struggled to get consistency from the side he inherited in January, with West Ham having won just two of their last 10 league games. It’s four without a win for the East Londoners, who drew 2-2 with Bournemouth in an entertaining clash last weekend.
Niclas Fullkrug scored a brilliant header in that clash as the German steps up his recovery from injury. The forward has endured a tough time during his debut season, but his return is welcome for a West Ham side that have lacked a focal point.

Liverpool are looking for a response of their own this weekend. The Reds lost 3-2 at Fulham last weekend, just their second Premier League defeat of the campaign. However, it’s three defeats in four games across all competitions for Arne Slot’s side.
