Liverpool v West Ham United: Team news

West Ham, meanwhile, look set to be without forward Pablo Felipe, who has missed their last three games due to a calf injury.

Midfielder Freddie Potts is suspended for the visitors.

Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo held his pre-match press conference on Thursday afternoon and said: “He [Pablo] didn’t join us yet. He’s starting his individual programme, so he’s improving day by day. We’ll keep assessing him and see when he can return. Hopefully it’s soon, because we miss him.”

On the fitness of the rest of his squad, Nuno added: “There are always things to assess. We have another training session tomorrow [Friday] and then we will travel.”

Both sides have long-term injury absentees: Conor Bradley, Wataru Endo, Alexander Isak and Giovanni Leoni for Liverpool, and Lukasz Fabianski for West Ham.
