Liverpool vs West Ham 05.03.2022

Red hot Liverpool will be looking to apply even more pressure on league leader Man City when they welcome West Ham to Anfield in their Saturday afternoon kickoff. The Reds are have been on a tear in the last few weeks, with 8 straight wins in the league at Anfield, putting the title race back into play as they are now just 6 points behind City, but with a game in hand.

West Ham have impressed for the most part this season. They have consistently been in the European football places on the log and they will be angling for a strong finish. They beat Wolves 1-0 last weekend but followed this up with a stinker in their midweek FA Cup which they lost 3-1 to Southampton.

These two teams tend to always have a go at each other. Four of their last 6 league meetings at Anfield have had at least 10 corners and we are backing a repeat of the same here given the stakes at play
