Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. West Ham United

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with West Ham United on Wednesday.

Liverpool will be aiming to build on Sunday's 1-0 win against Manchester City when they host West Ham United at Anfield on Wednesday.

After drubbing Rangers 7-1 in the Champions League last week, the Reds appear to have turned a corner after putting in an almighty effort to inflict the reigning champions' first defeat of the season, with Mohamed Salah's magical turn and finish separating the two sides.

The Hammers, meanwhile, visit Anfield after drawing 1-1 away to Southampton on Sunday, with David Moyes's side requiring a win if they are to climb into the top half of the Premier League.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest injury and suspension news for Liverpool ahead of their clash with West Ham on Wednesday.
