Liverpool FC have a ton to play for tonight when they host lowly West Ham United. A victory here would see them equal Manchester City’s all-time record of winning 18 straight top-flight games. Unbeaten in their last 43 Premier League games, the Reds are highly favored to take all three points from this one.
Get a result here, as they are strongly expected to do against the league’s 18th place side, and that means the Merseyside club are just 10 matches away from an undefeated season. With the league title already long locked up, it’s the main goal Jurgen Klopp’s side has to play for in the domestic top flight.
Regarding the team news for this match, Liverpool will be sans captain Jordan Henderson due to a hamstring injury injury, with the skipper set for a three week spell on the sidelines. Otherwise, Klopp has no new injury concerns.
