Sutton made his prediction for West Ham vs Liverpool
BBC Sport's Chris Sutton has predicted Liverpool to maintain their excellent run of form and defeat West Ham United in their upcoming Premier League clash. They are set to face each other at the London Stadium on Sunday, December 29.
Liverpool showed great composure to come back from behind to secure a 3-1 win over Leicester City at Anfield midweek. They have now won three games on the bounce across competitions. They are at the summit of the league standings with 42 points from 17 games, six points above second-placed Arsenal with a game in hand.
On the other hand, the Hammers are in 13th place with 23 points. While Julen Lopetegui's side have stabilized in recent weeks and are unbeaten in their last four games, Liverpool have been the better side in recent history. The Reds have lost just once against West Ham in their last 16 league games, winning 12, and drawing three.
