West Ham’s adventures in the Europa Conference League and some disappointing performances have seen them have a domestic season to forget. What looked a month ago to be a genuine risk of relegation has now eased and if the Hammers can grab just a few more points, safety will be guaranteed.
David Moyes, as a long-serving Everton manager however, won’t let anyone rest when his side takes on Liverpool. His sides have a terrible record against the Reds but key players have started to hit form. A 4-1 win in Europe against Gent was followed by a 4-0 demolition of Bournemouth with forward Michail Antonio, and midfielders Declan Rice and Lucas Paqueta scoring in both games. After struggling to score for large parts of the season, suddenly, West Ham have found their scoring touch. The only injury concern is Italian striker Gianluca Scamacca who will not return until May at the earliest.
No matter how the table looks, Jurgen Klopp won’t have given up on finishing in the top four. Back-to-back wins against Leeds and Nottm Forest as well as a feisty 2-2 draw with leaders Arsenal have reinvigorated what had been a lifeless season.
Forward Diogo Jota scored a brace against both Leeds and Forest after having not scored all season, a welcome return to form. The decision to change full-back Trent Alexander Arnold’s position into a hybrid midfield role has also yielded dividends in terms of assists. Even despite the improved goalscoring, Liverpool have a terrible record away from home this season, with the win over Leeds their only victory against a bottom 10 side away from Anfield. Midfield, so often a problem area this year, has been boosted by the return of Curtis Jones in recent weeks but Naby Keita and Stefan Bajetic are still out injured for the rest of the season.
This is no end-of-season schedule filler, both teams need three points to help achieve their aims for the rest of the season, and any more dropped points could cost Liverpool a Champions League place or even see West Ham drop back into the relegation picture.
