West Ham United heads to Anfield on Saturday, seeking an important win to build on their recent progress.
The Hammers have improved their position in the league, collecting the same number of points in their last six matches as in the prior 18. Manager Nuno Espírito Santo managed a goalless draw against Bournemouth last week, and now his team faces a challenging game at a ground where they’ve only won once since 1963. Last season, Nuno achieved a 1–0 victory at Anfield with Nottingham Forest, which remains his only win against the Reds.
West Ham Team News
Nuno Espírito Santo will be without a key January signing and a suspended midfielder. Forward Pablo Felipe is out with a calf injury, and Freddie Potts is serving the second match of a three-game suspension. As a result, Soungoutou Magassa is likely to retain his spot in midfield. West Ham has struggled away, losing 26 out of 29 matches against last season’s champions in the Premier League.
Mads Hermansen is set to start in goal, likely behind a back five with Jean-Clair Todibo, Konstantinos Mavropanos, and Axel Disasi. Aaron Wan-Bissaka and El Hadji Malick Diouf are expected to play as wing-backs. In the attack, Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville will support Valentin Castellanos, who recently scored his first Premier League goal away from home. The Hammers are also noted for being the league’s most effective first-half team, scoring 59% of their goals before halftime.
