Prediction: 1-3
Liverpool
West Ham United and Liverpool square off against each other at London Stadium in the closing match of Sunday’s program. The Hammers aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Southampton, but they will have a mountain to climb against the league leaders. Experienced midfielder Tomas Soucek is banned for the match and seeing that both Lukas Fabianski (goalkeeper) and Max Kilman (defender) suffered injuries in the Boxing Day triumph, home win should not be considered.
Liverpool, on the other hand, came from behind to beat Leicester City 3-1 despite the fact that Arne Slot rested several first-team regulars. As pacey winger Luis Diaz is back to the starting XI after he was rested on Thursday, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the title hopefuls. Hungary midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
Highlighted Player (Mohamed Salah):
Mohamed Salah is considered one of the best African players. Salah began his senior career at El Mokawloon, scoring 11 goals in 41 league appearances for the club and in 2012 he moved to Europe, signing a four-year deal with Swiss side Basel.
The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as a striker as well was producing outstanding displays for the RotBlau from 2012 to 2014 and, as a result, Chelsea chiefs decided to sign him on 26 January, 2015 for a fee of £11 million. Mohamed Salah, though, failed to impress in the Premier league and one year later he was sent on loan to Fiorentina.
After making 16 league appearances for the Viola in the Serie A, the left-footed winger signed a loan deal with Roma on 6 August, 2015. The Romans made the contract permanent on 3 August, 2016. Speaking of his international career, Salah made his Egypt debut on 3 September, 2011 in a 2-1 loss to Sierra Leone. It has to be noted that he was named Roma’s player of the season (2015/2016).
Highlighted Team (West Ham):
West Ham United are an English football club based in East London. The club was founded in 1895 and it has to be noted that the club’s name was Thames Ironworks back then. The Hammers were playing their home games at Upton Park from 1904 until 2016, when they moved to the Stadium at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
West Ham have won three FA Cup trophies (1964, 1975 and 1980) and they were runners-up in 1923 and 2006. The capital club finished the 1985/1986 England first division campaign in third place in the standings and that is the club’s highest placing in the top flight. West Ham United have strong rivalries with fellow London clubs, but Tottenham Hotspur are considered the club’s main rivals.
A number of top-class players were part of West Ham in the past and the likes of Joe Cole, Carlos Tevez, Paolo Di Canio, Paul Ince, Julian Dicks, Shaka Hislop, Michael Carrick and Slaven Bilic are some of them.
