Liverpool vs West Ham prediction
Liverpool have had a strong start to this season. After a rather lackadaisical opening day draw at Stamford Bridge, they have turned on the burners and pulled off 4 straight wins. They are now third on the log just two points off the leaders Man City who remain perfect with 5 wins from their 5 games. The Reds are also involved in continental competition having travelled to Lask Linz in midweek to kickoff matchday 1 of the Europa League. Coach Klopp has tried to rotate his squad a little bit and he will have some of his top guns who have started clicking available for this Sunday’s assignment.
West Ham have also had a relatively solid start in this season’s EPL. The 3-1 loss to Man City last weekend was their first loss of the season and it ended a 3-game winning streak in which they claimed the scalp of good teams including Chelsea and Brighton. Like the hosts, the Hammers also have to juggle European football in their schedule this season and they too are coming off a midweek engagement in the Europa League.
While the hosts will look to get the job done here, West Ham will definitely give as much as they get. They have gone toe-to-toe with good teams this season and have shown a bit of fight in them. We expect an open-ended encounter here with both teams having a go at each other. As such there will be quite a bit of goal-mouth action here. As such, we are going for at least 10 corners as our main Liverpool vs West Ham prediction.

Prediction 2: 1st Half Under 1.5 Goals
With both teams just coming off midweek European assignments, we can expect a sluggish start to the game. Although they have both been prolific in front of goal to start the season, meetings between them lately haven’t quite had the fireworks. In fact, two of the last three H2H encounters have ended 1-0 at fulltime. With both of these teams keen to maintain their strong start to the season, we anticipate a very tight opening half in this clash and we are backing no more than one goal to be scored by halftime in this matcch with great odds for this available at Melbet half goals after trailing 1-0 at the break.

Prediction 3: Under 3.5 Bookings
Looking at the history between these teams, there appears to be some level of camaraderie whenever they meet. Only 1 of their last 10 encounters across all competitions have had at least 4 bookings and that was back in 2015! Although there is something to play for here, it is still early in the season and the level of intensity what you’d expect to get when a lot more is on the line. For our final Liverpool vs West Ham prediction, we are backing no more than 3 bookings to be dished out here @ 1.80 at Melbet
