Follow live updates from the Premier League tonight as Liverpool travel to West Ham looking to extend their lead at the top of the table to a frankly ridiculous 19 points.

Expect Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp to recall his senior players after making 11 changes for the draw at Shrewsbury in the FA Cup last weekend.

West Ham will meanwhile hand late fitness tests to Lukasz Fabianski and Robert Snodgrass as they attempt to claw their way out of danger. The Hammers are currently level on points with Bournemouth and Watford and are only outside the relegation zone on goal difference. Follow live updates below:

Match preview:

When is it?

The match kicks off at 7.45pm on Wednesday 29 January 2020.

How can I watch it?

Unfortunately, the match will not be broadcast live, due to Manchester City taking on Manchester United in the second-leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final at the same time.

Team news

West Ham are hampered by a lengthy injury list with Lukasz Fabianski, Felipe Anderson, Ryan Fredericks, Andriy Yarmolenko and Jack Wilshere all ruled out, while Robert Snodgrass and Arthur Masuaku are both doubts.

Mark Noble, Michail Antonio and Angelo Ogbonna are expected to return to the starting line-up after being rested for the Hammers’ FA Cup defeat by West Brom.

Liverpool remain without Sadio Mane as the winger recovers from a hamstring injury. James Milner and Nathaniel Clyne remain sidelined, however, Dejan Lovren, Joel Matip and Fabinho are all available for selection once again.

Predicted line-ups

West Ham: Randolph; Zabaleta, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Masuaku; Lanzini, Rice, Noble; Antonio, Haller

Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Wijnaldum; Salah, Firmino, Origi
