Liverpool vs West Ham United Competition – English Premier League Stadium: Anfield Date: 28th February 2026 Kick-off time – 15:00 GMT
Liverpool arrive at Anfield on Saturday in commanding form, having won four of their last five matches across all competitions. Their most recent outing produced a 1-0 victory away at Nottingham Forest on 22nd February, with prior wins including a 3-0 home defeat of Brighton in the FA Cup and a 1-0 away victory at Sunderland in the Premier League. The one blot on an otherwise excellent recent run was a 1-2 home loss to Manchester City on 8th February.
West Ham arrive in significantly worse shape, having drawn their most recent outing 0-0 at home to AFC Bournemouth on 21st February. The Hammers also drew 1-1 at home to Manchester United on 10th February, though they did claim victories at Burnley (2-0) and away at Burton Albion in the FA Cup (1-0) in between. Their season has been undermined by a leaky defence — 49 goals conceded in the league compared to Liverpool’s 35 — and a goal difference of -17 underlines just how difficult their campaign has been.
The head-to-head record strongly favours Liverpool, who have won four of the last five meetings without defeat, with one draw. Most recently, Liverpool claimed a 2-0 away victory at West Ham on 30th November 2025 and a 2-1 home win on 13th April 2025. West Ham’s only point in this sequence came from a 2-2 draw at their own ground in April 2024. With Liverpool at home, in form, and boasting vastly superior firepower — 42 goals scored to West Ham’s 32 — the Reds are heavy favourites to claim three points. The Hammers have conceded five goals on multiples occasions against the Red’s and will need a massive improvement defensively to take anything from Saturday’s contest.

Liverpool: Conor Bradley (Out), Joe Gomez (Out), Alexander Isak (Out), Giovanni Leoni (Out), Wataru Endo (Out), Jeremie Frimpong (Doubtful)
West Ham United: Lukasz Fabianski (Out), Pablo (Out), Freddie Potts (Out)
Liverpool carry significant absentees across their squad, losing Bradley and Gomez alongside striker Isak and several others, though their depth remains strong. West Ham are in slightly better shape numerically but lose their experienced goalkeeper Fabianski, which adds further pressure to an already vulnerable backline.
