Liverpool travel south to the London Stadium for Sunday afternoon’s Premier League clash with West Ham (kick-off 2.05pm).
We crunch the numbers and look ast head-to-head stats ahead of the big game…
West Ham have won just one of their last 18 Premier League games against Liverpool (D3 L14), beating them 3-2 at the London Stadium in November 2021.
Liverpool have scored 25 goals in their nine Premier League visits to the London Stadium against West Ham, including a 5-0 win in this fixture last season. Indeed, Man City (28) and Arsenal (26) are the only visiting sides with more goals at the ground.
Liverpool have lost each of their last five away league games against London sides, as many as in their previous 31 (W16 D10). The Reds last had a longer losing run in the capital between September 1952 and April 1954 (8).
Having only failed to score in one of their first 48 Premier League games under Arne Slot, Liverpool have now lost their last two by a 3-0 scoreline. They last lost more consecutively without reply in September 1993 (a run of four).
Liverpool have lost 3-0 against Man City and 3-0 against Nottingham Forest in their last two Premier League games. They’ve not conceded 3+ goals in three consecutive league games since April 1955 in the second tier, while they last lost three in a row by a margin of 3+ goals in December 1953.
Liverpool have conceded 20 goals in their 12 league games this season. It’s the joint-earliest into a Premier League campaign they’ve conceded 20+ goals, along with 1992-93 (also 20 after 12).
Only against Nottingham Forest (7 – 6 goals, 1 assist) has Alexander Isak been involved in more Premier League goals than he has against West Ham (6 – 5 goals, 1 assist). The Swede is yet to get off the mark for Liverpool in the competition, however, losing each of his first four starts.
