The Reds come into this match off the back of one of the worst runs of the season, as recent defeats to Paris Saint-Germain, Newcastle United, and Fulham, mean that Liverpool need a victory.
The Reds do only require nine points from their remaining games after Arsenal were held 1-1 by Brentford on Saturday.
Liverpool’s last home meeting with West Ham was a whopping win for the Reds in the Carabao Cup earlier this season.
There has been change at West Ham since then, with the departure of manager Julen Lopetegui and the hiring of Graham Potter.
With a couple of injury returnees finally back into starting contention, let’s have a look at the team that Arne Slot could field for Liverpool’s home game against the Irons.
Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker
Defenders: Andy Robertson, Virgil van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Conor Bradley
Midfielders: Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai
Forwards: Cody Gakpo, Mo Salah, Luis Diaz
Possible Substitutes: Caoimhin Kelleher, Kostas Tsimikas, Jarell Quansah, Wataru Endo, Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott, Darwin Nunez, Federico Chiesa, Diogo Jota
Alisson Becker will likely return to the Liverpool lineup post injury layoff, after Arne Slot confirmed that he should be ready to play on Sunday.
Conor Bradley will likely start post his injury, after featuring from the bench against Fulham. His return will be most welcome with the continued speculation that Trent Alexander-Arnold wil be departing in the summer.
Dominik Szoboszlai will likely keep his place over Curtis Jones, who should no longer be needed at right back.
Arne Slot has made it clear over the course of the season that Szoboszlai is his first choice as Liverpool’s advanced midfielder.
Cody Gakpo should return from injury after a series of substitute appearances either side of the international break.
The Dutchman has put in a mixed bag of performances since being sidelined, but should finally be fit to start.
Luis Diaz may get the nod ahead of derby goalscorer Diogo Jota. Liverpool have often looked their best with Diaz leading the line this season, and against a cumbersome West Ham defence, Slot may feel that pace is a necessity.
Diogo Jota would be unfortunate to miss out, but after having a tricky time at Fulham, he might have to play his part from the bench.
Mo Salah will aim to continue his excellent season after penning a new two-year deal during the week.
