Liverpool turn their attention back to the Premier League when they face West Ham United at Anfield on Sunday (14.00 BST). Both sides have enjoyed a positive start to the 2023-24 season. The Reds have picked up 13 points in their opening five top-flight games while they made a winning start in the Europa League when beating LASK 3-1.
West Ham also triumphed in their first game in the continent’s second-tier competition as they beat TSC Backa Topola 3-1 at the London Stadium. The Hammers have also taken 10 points in the Premier League despite losing talisman Declan Rice in the summer transfer window. Ahead of the clash, here’s an early look at the team news for both teams.
1. Liverpool vs West Ham team news
2. Trent Alexander-Arnold - doubt
The Liverpool right-back was rated as 50/50 to feature against West Ham earlier this week. He won’t be risked if not ready.
3. Ryan Gravenberch - minor doubt
Came off against LASK with cramp but he should be OK.
4. Thiago Alcantara - out
Still unavailable after having hip surgery in April.
