# West Ham Predicted XI: Liverpool (H)

[West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/01/30/west-ham-quiz-can-you-name-these-strikers/) will be hoping to keep their dream start to 2021 going when they welcome reigning Premier League champions Liverpool to the London Stadium this evening.

Despite the teams’ [contrasting fortunes last season](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/premier-league/tabelle/wettbewerb/GB1?saison_id=2019), it’s the Hammers who come into this clash in [better form](https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/west-ham-united/form-guide) after making an unbeaten start to the New Year, as well as being [unbeaten in seven matches](https://www.skysports.com/west-ham-united-results) in all competitions.

David Moyes has got his [charges well-organised](https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/west-ham-news-david-moyes-humble-table-european-football-b900375.html) and, up until this point, the Irons have proved to be a match for anyone, home or away. That was the case earlier in the season when West Ham went to Anfield and took the lead through an early [Pablo Fornals](https://readwestham.com/2020/11/17/pablo-fornals-european-football-west-ham/) strike.

The lead stood until shortly before half-time when Arthur Masuaku conceded a penalty for Mohamed Salah to fire home before [Diogo Jota stole all three points](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11661/12119830/liverpool-2-1-west-ham-under-par-champions-saved-by-diogo-jotas-late-winner) late on. Moyes’ men will be out to exact revenge for that defeat, having been well in the contest throughout.

With new signing Jesse Lingard [unlikely to be involved](https://www.football.london/west-ham-united-fc/transfer-news/west-ham-jesse-lingard-transfer-19726107) immediately having only [signed late on Friday](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2021/january/29-january/west-ham-united-sign-england-international-jesse-lingard-loan), here’s how we think the Irons will line up, with  Moyes unlikely to change things up too much from the [team which won at Crystal Palace](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/spielbericht/index/spielbericht/3429689) five days ago…
