STAT:
- The Last time West Ham won against Liverpool was in 2011-2012.
- Liverpool won the last game at Upton Park by 2 goals to 1.
TEAM NEWS:
West Ham boss Sam Allardyce has the same
squad to choose from like last weekend, none of the injured players are
returning for the Liverpool clash.
Andy Carroll, Matt
Jarvis, Kevin Nolan and Joey O'Brien all are out while James Collins is a doubt
for the game. Full-back Carl Jenkinson and midfielder Alex Song might make their
first start for the Hammers.
Meanwhile, Liverpool center-back Martin
Skrtle is ready to face West Ham after returning from a knee problem. He missed
three games for the Reds.
Right-backs Glen Johnson and Jon Flanagan are
still out along with Joe Allen and Daniel Sturridge who is set to make a return
from a thigh injury next weekend hopefully.
