BPL – Midweek Game – Liverpool vs West Ham

Hello Everyone !!

Today’s game sees FIFTH-PLACED Liverpool meeting West Ham in a postponed match. A win tonight against West Ham will see Liverpool move above Everton in the league table on goal difference.

Betting on Liverpool is like making a bet on when Britney Spears will snap again. They are so inconsistent that it’s hard to tell what kind of changes Benitez will make every game. Though, he has come out and said that he will reduce the frequency of rotation, today’s match is the 2nd of 5 matches to be played in a fortnight. With a trip to San Siro sandwiched between two home games against Newcastle and Reading, I am sure Benitez will make some changes in the lineup.

The Hammers were ‘hammerred’ by Chelsea 4-0 at their own ground and the number of injuries are piling up for Alan Curbishley’s team. West Ham have nothing to play for this season as they have already secured the magic 40 points and they do not look like having the capacity to fight for the UEFA spot.

West Ham’s confidence should be low after the home thrashing and Liverpool’s should be high after convincingly beating Bolton at Reebok Stadium.

Prediction : A comfortable Home Win. -1.5 possible if Liverpool field a strong first team.
