Liverpool predicted lineup vs West Ham – Premier League

Liverpool got their European campaign off to a winning start following their victory against LASK in Austria, but now it’s time for Jurgen Klopp and his side to refocus on the Premier League.

The Reds welcome West Ham United to Anfield this Sunday as they aim to maintain their unbeaten record this season. Klopp’s men have won four and drawn one of their five league games so far, but their schedule is starting to look increasingly jam-packed as we head towards the typically hectic winter period.

Klopp changed his entire starting lineup for the trip to Linz midweek and is likely to ring the changes yet again for the visit of West Ham this Sunday.

Here is how the Reds could line up when they face West Ham.

GK: Alisson Caoimhin Kelleher started against LASK midweek to give Alisson a nice rest in between the sticks. However, the Brazilian will undoubtedly return to the starting lineup against West Ham.

RB: Joe Gomez – With Trent Alexander-Arnold almost certainly missing again, Gomez should take his place at right-back. Klopp put Stefan Bajcetic there against LASK, but the Reds looked much better when Gomez replaced him in the second half.

CB: Ibrahima Konate – The Frenchman returned from injury in the Europa League and was substituted with ten minutes remaining to preserve him for West Ham’s visit.

CB: Virgil van Dijk Missed Liverpool‘s last two games through suspension but the captain returned in midweek and will start again this Sunday.

LB: Andy Robertson Scored a crucial goal against Wolves last weekend and is beginning to get back to his high standards in a red shirt. Kostas Tsimikas’ start midweek means the Scot is guaranteed to line up from the off against the Hammers.

CM: Dominik Szoboszlai – Has been so impressive since arriving at Anfield and already looks a bargain at £60m. Managed his first Liverpool goal in the Reds’ last home clash.

CM: Alexis Mac Allister A jetlagged Mac Allister had a day to forget against Wolves last Saturday but should be refreshed and raring to go after only making a cameo against LASK. Will be preferred in the holding midfield role once more.

CM: Curtis Jones An impressive performance from Ryan Gravenberch in the Europa League means Jones has to show his quality and consistency to keep his place in Klopp’s starting lineup. Should get the nod against West Ham.

RW: Mohamed Salah – Changed the game when he came on against LASK and even grabbed a lovely goal late on. Can bet your life savings on Salah starting this weekend.

CF: Cody Gakpo Darwin Nunez played the entire match in midweek which perhaps indicates Gakpo could start at the weekend. Managed his first goal of the season against Wolves last time out.

LW: Luis Diaz Was a game-changer against Wolves when he came on and had a similar influence against LASK. Could be rested in favour of Diogo Jota given he played the entirety of Thursday’s game but his form surely makes him a shoo-in to start.
