Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
------------------------------
Liverpool fans will be in high spirits following Mohamed Salah's contract extension as they host West Ham United at Anfield. Both teams are looking to bounce back after recent disappointing results. Liverpool, top of the league, suffered a surprise 3-2 loss to Fulham, while West Ham, in the bottom half of the table, played to a 2-2 draw with Bournemouth in their last match.
Team Analysis:
Liverpool fans are celebrating Mohamed Salah’s contract extension, which ended months of uncertainty. The star forward, already with eight major trophies at Liverpool, is set to add more, potentially securing a Premier League title this season, despite last week's unexpected defeat at Fulham.
Meanwhile, West Ham United, struggling to win their last four matches, are looking to edge closer to survival in the league. Their most recent match against Bournemouth ended in a 2-2 draw, with Bournemouth securing a late equalizer to prevent West Ham from claiming their first win since February.
Player Situation:
Ahead of Liverpool's match, manager Slot addressed Mohamed Salah’s contract extension but also provided updates on team selection. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker is set to return after recovering from a head injury, while Tyler Morton, Joe Gomez, and Trent Alexander-Arnold remain sidelined. Conor Bradley is fit to start after a hamstring issue and could replace Curtis Jones in the lineup. Salah, eager to end a four-match goal and assist drought, will aim to break a Premier League record for goal contributions in a 38-game season.
For West Ham, manager Potter confirmed an unchanged squad from their match against Bournemouth, although there is a late fitness check on striker NiclasFullkrug. Fullkrug is expected to play but remains a doubt, while Aaron Cresswell, Michail Antonio, and Crysencio Summerville are still unavailable. Jarrod Bowen, who has been involved in most of West Ham's recent goals against Liverpool, might continue to fill in as striker.
Result Prediction:
Liverpool, coming off their recent Champions League exit, now have time to recover after a long and challenging season, which is crucial for their upcoming matches. Meanwhile, West Ham, known for their defensive strategy and counter-attacks, especially against title contenders like Arsenal, could pose a threat. However, Liverpool is expected to push forward and continue their march towards the Premier League title.
Predicted Result: Liverpool 2-0 West Ham United
