West Ham vs Liverpool: How to watch early team news 

Liverpool aims to recover from its recent loss against Everton in the Merseyside derby by taking on West Ham at London Stadium. Although manager Jürgen Klopp acknowledges the team’s Premier League title aspirations are virtually over, he still seeks to finish the season strongly.

Liverpool is currently three points behind top team Arsenal and two points behind Manchester City, which has played one fewer game. A win in the early kick-off against West Ham would allow Liverpool to at least temporarily match Arsenal’s point total, leading the table for up to 24 hours before Arsenal faces Tottenham on Sunday.

Despite Klopp’s somber outlook, City manager Pep Guardiola believes the title race isn’t yet settled for Liverpool. A victory over West Ham is essential for keeping any remaining title hopes alive.

In terms of early team news, Liverpool is expected to welcome back Cody Gakpo, who missed the game against Everton for the birth of his child. However, Conor Bradley and Diogo Jota remain unavailable, along with long-term absentees like Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic, and Joel Matip.

West Ham may see Jarrod Bowen return after missing the recent loss to Crystal Palace. However, defender Nayef Aguerd is still out, while Konstantinos Mavropanos might be back.

“Jarrod Bowen is back training, so there is a good chance he will be available,” said West Ham manager David Moyes. “We still have to monitor him up until kick-off to see how he is, but hopefully Jarrod is back and fit.

“We’ve got a couple of issues with our center-backs. Nayef won’t be available as he’s not ready yet.

“Dinos [Mavropanos] has a chance, so we’ll need to see how he is, but it’s a quick turnaround with the game being played at lunchtime. Hopefully, they will be fine.”
