The Reds haven’t dropped a league game since being thrashed 4-1 by Manchester City in April, and they appear to be title contenders once more this season.
The offensive options available to Jurgen Klopp’s team are lethal, and their newly constructed midfield is beginning to show promise.
The Irons, however, won’t give up easily despite having a solid campaign debut.
Despite having previously played City, Chelsea, and Brighton, David Moyes’ team has 10 points from its first five Premier League games.
And they’ll go to Anfield with the conviction that they can win three points.

What have people said about Liverpool and West Ham?

He’s in considerably better shape now than when he initially came in, which is to say, he’s in pretty fantastic form.
“I have to admit, I believe Jesse’s nine goals in 15 games after joining us two years ago made the difference in our first-ever entry into Europe.
“I want to give him every chance to get better on his own before I see how he does.
There isn’t really an update at the moment, other than to say that he’s back and approaching the levels of fitness you’d expect he would be at.
