EPL: West Ham v Liverpool preview


West Ham v Liverpool preview

West Ham will welcome back Winston Reid after injury for the visit of Liverpool to the London Stadium on Saturday evening.


The New Zealand international defender has missed the Hammers' last two games with a calf injury, but is expected to return to the starting line up for the clash with Jurgen Klopp's men.

Reid's return will come as a major boost to boss Slavan Bilic, who is without injured trio Jose Fonte, Sam Byram and James Collins, while Pablo Zabaleta is missing through suspension.

Michail Antonio is another key absentee, but full-back Aaron Cresswell is fit to feature despite suffering a dead leg in last week's 2-2 draw at Crystal Palace.

Liverpool, who won this fixture 4-0 last season, also have their injury problems with Georginio Wijnaldum and Philippe Coutinho missing out with ankle and back problems respectively.

Klopp has revealed though that Sadio Mane has been back in training this week and could feature, although he is unlikely to start, while Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is looking to start his first league game since his move from Arsenal.

There has been only one goalless draw in the last 10 meetings between the sides, with the last three games bringing 11 goals.
