Liverpool need 11 points from their final seven games to win the Premier League, and they have the chance to get three closer when they take on West Ham later today.

A poor defensive display saw Liverpool lose 3-2 against Fulham last weekend, putting an end to the Reds' 26-game unbeaten run in the Premier League as they lost just their second league game of the season.

It wasn't the worst situation in the world after Arsenal drew against Everton, but Arne Slot's side will be looking to respond with a win when they face West Ham.

Just four wins will be enough for Liverpool to win the Premier League title, and recent history against West Ham is in the Reds' favour, with Slot's side having won their last nine meetings at Anfield against the Irons.

Alisson is available once again after missing out in the last two games, with Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold Liverpool's only absentees.

So, can Liverpool get back to winning ways this weekend?

It was a dominant start to the game at Anfield from Slot's side, and before half-time, the Reds managed to grab a second.

After drifting into the middle, some intricate passing play between Luis Diaz, Szoboszai and Diogo Jota saw the Reds break past the West Ham defence into a dangerous position.

Jota flicked the ball into the feet of Diaz, and the Colombian fired a great shot into the far corner to double the lead.

Just after half-time, Liverpool made it 3-0 from the penalty spot when Mohamed Salah was tripped inside the box, and the Egypitan made no mistake with his finish, blasting down the middle to all but secure the win.

West Ham had a few chances in the second half with Alisson forced into making a handful of saves, but the three points were confirmed in the 88th minute as Liverpool scored a fourth.
