Confirmed Lineups: Liverpool vs. West Ham
Darwin Núñez starts for Liverpool as he looks to continue his good form as of late as he is joined by Luis Díaz in the attack. Virgil van Dijk returns to the side after completing his two-match suspension as he pairs alongside Jöel Matip in the centre of defence.
Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai return to the starting line-up after being rested in midweek as Curtis Jones keeps his place in the team after an impressive second-half performance in Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Wolves last week.

LFC Globe Verdict
Liverpool face a tough test against a good West Ham side who have Jarrod Bowen back in the starting line-up after struggling with illness. The home side do have their captain back with Virgil van Dijk returning to the starting line-up after serving his two-match ban.
Liverpool may have their undisputed front three for the season with Mohamed Salah, Luis Díaz and Darwin Núñez starting up top with the latter hoping to continue his good form this season.
