West Ham - Liverpool: Confirmed lineups & live updates
- Nima Tavallaey Roodsari (@NimaTavRood)
None of the last 12 Premier League meetings between these sides at West Ham have ended as a draw. West Ham have won four and Liverpool eight since a 1-1 draw in December 2001.
Liverpool’s only previous Premier League visit to the London Stadium was in May. They won 4-0 to record their biggest away league victory at West Ham since January 1976.
Liverpool have lost three of their last six Premier League games against the Hammers (W2 D1) – as many as they’d lost in their previous 25.
West Ham have conceded 10 goals in their last eight home Premier League games, despite keeping five clean sheets in that run – four of those goals were scored by Liverpool in their last visit to the London Stadium.
Of the 18 sides to have played in both of the last two Premier League seasons, only Crystal Palace (24) and Swansea City (30) have won fewer points in home matches than West Ham United (31) over this period.
Liverpool’s 15 goals conceded away from home this season is the most by a team in the Premier League. Indeed, it’s the most the Reds have shipped after five away games of a season since 1953-54 (16), when they were relegated from the top-flight.
All 41 of Javier Hernandez’s Premier League goals have been scored from inside the box; only Tim Cahill (56/56) has a higher 100% record in the competition.
Philippe Coutinho has been involved in six goals in last five matches against West Ham in all competitions (three goals, three assists) and scored twice and assisted one in Liverpool’s 4-0 win in May.
Daniel Sturridge has scored five goals in seven Premier League appearances against West Ham United, including the opening goal at the London Stadium in Liverpool’s 4-0 win over the Hammers last season.
Joe Hart has conceded 29 goals in 17 Premier League games against Liverpool during his career; five more than he’s let in against any other side.
