West Ham United face an almighty challenge in the Premier League this weekend when they travel to Liverpool.
Indeed, Nuno Espirito Santo takes his side to Anfield as West Ham United look to move out of the Premier League’s relegation zone.
For the first time in what feels like an age, West Ham could lift themselves out of the bottom three in the Premier League table with three points on Saturday.

That, however, is much easier said than done. West Ham drew with Bournemouth in their last game and will need to raise their performance levels on Merseyside.
With that in mind, here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Liverpool vs West Ham United
West Ham have a dreadful record at Anfield. They haven’t won there since 2015 and haven’t even picked up a draw since 2016.
Frankly, it’s difficult to see that changing here. Liverpool may not convince but so little about West Ham’s record at Anfield would suggest they can get anything there.
