Liverpool XI vs West Ham: Predicted lineup, confirmed team news and injury latest for Premier League today | OneFootball

Liverpool have Cody Gakpo back in contention to face West Ham this afternoon, but Diogo Jota is still out.

Jurgen Klopp’s hopes of delivering a second Premier League title during his final season in charge are now almost over following Wednesday's hugely disappointing loss to Everton in the Merseyside derby.

The Reds boss rested the likes of Darwin Nunez, Mohamed Salah and Alexis Mac Allister for the win at Fulham before the short journey to Goodison Park but it had little impact on their performance.

It is a quick turnaround for the journey to east London and it remains to be seen whether Klopp opts to shuffle his pack again.

Gakpo missed the defeat to Everton due to birth of his first child, but Klopp confirmed at his press conference on Friday that the Dutchman is now back in training. With Nunez and Salah both wasteful in front of goal once against against Everton, Gakpo could come back into the starting lineup.

Jota is injured but should return before the end of the season, while Conor Bradley remains on the sidelines.

Thiago Alcantara, Joel Matip and Ben Doak are all out.

Doubts: Bajcetic

Injured: Jota, Doak, Matip, Thiago

Time and date: 12.30pm BST on Saturday 27 April, 2024

Venue: London Stadium
