THE PREDICTION

Luck really is not on Liverpool’s side at the moment, with Fabinho coming off injured during their game against Midtjylland just half an hour into the game. Unless Matip makes a last-minute recovery, it looks as though youngster Rhys Williams will slot in alongside Gomez at the back, something West Ham may try and target. Although, with the potential loss of Antonio, West Ham instantly lose their best attacking option and become a weaker side. Both teams to score is a strong possibility but despite the loss of some key players, Liverpool are still the superior side and expect them to win.
