Latest West Ham vs Liverpool team news
Hugo Ekitike's injury in the second half against PSV has further hampered Liverpool. Slot is confident that his back problem isn't serious, but the prospect of Alexander Isak starting on Sunday will certainly be welcomed.
The £125 million signing scored five goals and provided an assist against West Ham in the Premier League — his second-best record against a single team, behind only Nottingham Forest (six goals, one assist). But he is also the only player in Liverpool history to lose all four of his first Premier League starts.
On the positive side, goalkeeper Alisson Becker is expected to recover in time for this away match, and Florian Wirtz may also overcome his muscle problem to feature.
However, the defensive trio of Jeremie Frimpong (hamstring), Conor Bradley (hamstring), and Giovanni Leoni (torn anterior cruciate ligament) will definitely be absent.
On West Ham's side, Lucas Paqueta returns after serving a suspension for accumulating yellow cards, and this could lead to a tactical change by the manager, with Igor Julio having to make way for him.
The home side could also welcome back Dinos Mavropanos (thigh) and Crysencio Summerville (collision) to the squad, although both require further testing. Lukasz Fabianski (back) and Oliver Scarles (shoulder) are still recovering.
Latest predicted lineups for West Ham vs Liverpool

Latest West Ham vs Liverpool football match prediction
After breaking a host of impressive records in his first season in England, Slot and the Liverpool squad are now racking up a string of "terrible records," and the statistics from Wednesday night were a real disappointment for the fans at Anfield.
The 1-4 defeat to PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League marked the first time in 72 years that Liverpool had lost three consecutive matches by a margin of three or more goals. At the same time, they also equaled an unwanted record — losing three home games by three or more goals in a single season — the last time this happened was in the 1929-30 season.
Adding to that the 0-3 defeats against Manchester City and Nottingham Forest in the Premier League — results that saw Liverpool drop to a humiliating 12th place — many believe Slot's time should have come to an end. However, the Dutch manager is still enjoying the support of the board… at least for now.
But how many more games must Liverpool lose — or how many more embarrassing records must they break — before the club makes a decision? Entering matchday 13, Liverpool are closer to the relegation zone than to league leaders Arsenal in terms of points, and they could concede three or more goals in three consecutive Premier League games for the first time since 1955.
On the road alone, the reigning champions have lost all four of their most recent Premier League matches, conceding at least two goals in each game. Even worse, they have also lost all five of their most recent away games against London teams.
If this match had taken place a few months ago, West Ham fans might have given up before kick-off. But now, the atmosphere at the London Stadium is filled with optimism after an incredible transformation.
While Liverpool are in freefall, the 2022-23 Conference League champions have climbed out of the relegation zone and into 17th place thanks to an impressive November.
Two consecutive home wins against Newcastle and Burnley opened up a thrilling chase with Bournemouth (2-2 draw), where Callum Wilson scored a brace against his former club, before Santo's side squandered a 2-0 lead in rainy weather.
Although they are only ahead of 18th-placed Leeds on a slightly better goal difference, their home ground is becoming a major advantage for West Ham. If they beat Liverpool, they could win three consecutive home games in the same Premier League season for the first time since October 2022.
The tradition at the London Stadium is particularly favorable for Liverpool's attack. Last season, they won 5-0 at this venue, and have scored a total of 25 goals at this stadium in the Premier League — only behind Man City (28) and Arsenal (26).
However, West Ham only need to look back to November 2021 — the last time they beat Liverpool 3-2 here — to believe that history could very well repeat itself in the current circumstances.
