    On Sunday West Ham host Liverpool at the London Stadium in a game that could prove to be vital in the visitor's hopes of clinching a Champions League spot for next season.

    The home side are currently 12th in the Premier League table and have very little left to play for this season. However, Slaven Bilic and his side will be hoping to secure a top-half finish having finished seventh last season.

    The Hammers form has not been too bad of late, as Bilic’s side are unbeaten in their last five top-flight games, having won twice and drawn three times.

    The home side’s recent form has been based on a solid defensive record, as they have kept clean sheets in four of their last five Premier League outings. The Hammers produced a surprise 1-0 win over title-chasing Tottenham last time out, so will be confident of repeating the feat in this clash.

    West Ham are unbeaten in their last three home games in the Premier League but have won just two of their last seven home games in the top-flight.

    Liverpool are currently third in the Premier League table but are currently four points clear of fifth-place Arsenal, who also have a game in hand. The Reds could kick-off this game in fourth place, with rivals Manchester City facing Leicester at home.

    The Reds are in decent form, as Jurgen Klopp’s side have lost just one of their last ten games in the Premier League. The visitors recent away form in the top-flight has been decent of late, as they are now unbeaten in their last four games on their travels, winning their last three away games.

    The trip to the London Stadium will not be easy for Liverpool, but Forebet predicts that Klopp’s side will come out on top in this clash.
