Liverpool's UCL hopes hinge on West Ham clash
28 Feb
Summary
- Liverpool vies for a Champions League spot, currently tied with Chelsea.
- West Ham shows improved form with better offense and defense recently.
- Liverpool faces injury concerns impacting key players like Wirtz and Szoboszlai.
Liverpool enters the weekend level on points with Chelsea, aiming to secure a Champions League spot likely extending to fifth place. The team faces a resurgent West Ham United, who have shown marked improvement in their last six matches with increased goals scored and a tighter defense.
Despite their current form, Liverpool has grappled with injuries throughout the season, with Florian Wirtz and Dominik Szoboszlai facing availability issues for the upcoming match. The potential return of Jeremie Frimpong, sidelined with a hamstring injury, could bolster Liverpool's attack.
West Ham's turnaround is attributed to key performances, while Liverpool's recent victories have been hard-fought, often decided by late goals. The club's ongoing injury woes and inconsistency in attack pose significant questions heading into Saturday's critical fixture.
