Jurgen Klopp’s men are seeking to reinforce their place at the top of the Premier League with three more points.
Liverpool�s next stop in their quest for the Premier League title is West Ham�s London Stadium, which will play host to Jurgen Klopp�s Reds on Monday.
After Pep Guardiola�s men beat Arsenal 3-1 on Sunday, the Reds can re-establish a five-point advantage at the summit of the standings, having missed the opportunity to open clear water in midweek when they were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Leicester.
West Ham, meanwhile, have lost their last three fixtures in all competitions but did beat Arsenal 1-0 in their previous home outing and still have an outside chance of European football if they can string together a strong run.
Liverpool vice-captain James Milner returns from a one-match ban and will go straight into the squad.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, however, is still missing, with Jurgen Klopp hopeful he will return to full training in the next week. Joe Gomez and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are absent, too.
Jordan Henderson is set to make his 300th Premier League appearance.
Liverpool starting XI: Alisson; Milner, Lovren, Van Dijk, Robertson; Wijnaldum, Fabinho; Shaqiri, Firmino, Mane; Salah
Marko Arnautovic faces a race against time to shake off a foot injury if he is to feature. The odds are stacked against the Hammers� top scorer, however.
The Hammers also have doubts over goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski and Aaron Cresswell.
These add to a huge number of long-term problems, the most prominent of which are Fabian Balbuena, Jack Wilshere, and Andriy Yarmolenko.
Samir Nasri is also absent.
West Ham starting XI: Fabianski; Zabaleta, Diop, Ogbonna, Masuaku; Rice, Noble; Snodgrass, Anderson, Antonio; Arnautovic
