On Sunday, 13 April, West Ham are asked to enter the lion’s den when they travel to Anfield to face Liverpool.

West Ham will want to forget their earlier encounter with Liverpool, especially since they were comprehensively beaten 5-0 in December last time in the league and 5-1 before that in the EFL Cup.

Considering Liverpool’s dominant form, betting markets will heavily favour another home victory.

Historical Context: A Look Back at Memorable Encounters

Liverpool absolutely dominates the head-to-head battle between these two teams.

West Ham are a gritty side who know how to absorb pressure and then look to hurt teams on the counter by way of set pieces – something Arne Slot and his chargers would be aware of.

Tactical Analysis: Strategies and Game PlansLiverpool’s Approach:

Arne Slot has come in and (with absolute and sincere respect to Jurgen Klopp) seemingly polished the style and approach of this Liverpool team.

They play with the same controlled press and robust defensive system but with an added focus on rotation and positional depth.

Their pacey transitions and gritty midfield allow for talented finishers up front to put the ball in the back of the net.

West Ham’s Approach:

Graham Potter will know what his team face in Liverpool – it will just be about whether or not they can stop it.

His leadership and composed approach to hard and robust defending has seen his side compete on all fronts once again.

West Ham

Jarrod Bowen has come back from injury and has once again been one of West Ham’s most pivotal attacking players.

His creativity in midfield is dwarfed only by his robust defending and ability to delay the progression of their opponents.

James Ward-Prowse is another player who often controls the tempo of the game for West Ham – but he could play a pivotal role for the Hammer’s here with his ability over the dead ball.

Conclusion: A Difficult Task for West Ham

Liverpool are worthy favourites for the encounter, but West Ham are nothing if not proud.
