Michail Antonio has been one of the players to watch out for in this season of the Premier League. The centre-forward has been ripping teams apart with his decisive strike in front of goal, proving himself a threat to be reckoned with.

Antonio has scored six goals and provided three assists in the Premier League. The 31-year-old has been involved in nine out of 20 goals scored by the Hammers so far in the English top flight. The statistics are a testament to Antonio's brilliance and how crucial he is for West Ham.

With the midfielders and wingers in such fine form, Antonio is bound to get the service he needs to be effective in front of goal. He has all the ammunition to make life difficult for Liverpool defenders and our guess is that he will have an impact on the game.


#2 Mohamed Salah to find the net

The easiest prediction of the lot is that Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah will find a way to score. The Egyptian maestro has made a habit of being prolific for the Reds as only a few defenders have managed to keep him quiet.

Salah has been in a league of his own, racking up 15 goals and six assists across all competitions this campaign. Ten of his goals and all six assists have come in the English top flight. This proves why he is the best in the Premier league, if not the world, by some margin.

There is no doubt that Salah is the most important player for Liverpool. Opponents can hope and pray that the 29-year-old does not perform to his full potential, which will make him truly unstoppable.

West Ham will definitely go the extra mile and try their best to stop Salah. But considering his form, our guess is Salah will find the net.


#1 Liverpool to emerge victorious in a thriller

An away trip to face West Ham is a difficult place for any opponents and will prove to be a stern test for Liverpool. Both teams are known for their offensive approach, which makes it all the more exciting for the fans.

The Reds are the leading scorers in the Premier League with 29 goals in 10 matches while West Ham have scored 20. Jurgen Klopp's men will miss their key players, especially Roberto Firmino up front. Yet they are likely to have no problem scoring goals, as evident with their exploits against Atletico Madrid.

Considering Liverpool's sensational away form and West Ham's poor record against the Reds, we are predicting a win for the Merseyside team.
