West Ham vs Liverpool Prediction 30 November 2025
🔊 Can Arne Slot steer the team out of this severe crisis? It's clear that defending the Premier League title is no longer on the table for Liverpool. The Reds need to stabilize their results and fight for a top-four finish, as missing out on the Champions League after such heavy spending would be a massive failure. Bookmakers believe West Ham won't pose a serious challenge even to this version of Liverpool. Find out what our editorial team expects from the match at the London Stadium in this prediction.
Head-to-Head
📊 In their head-to-head encounters, Liverpool dominate, having won 8 out of the last 9 matches. Notably, in the previous five meetings, the Reds have scored five goals against the Hammers on three occasions.

West Ham United Team Overview
West Ham's management took their time deciding on Graham Potter's dismissal, but it seems they made the right choice with their next head coach. Nuno Espírito Santo, a seasoned manager, had a rocky start, securing just one point in four matches. However, once the team adapted to his demands and style of play, their fortunes turned around.
The Hammers are now unbeaten in three consecutive matches. At home, they show no fear against formidable opponents, as demonstrated in their 3-1 victory over Newcastle. On the road, they capitalize on limited opportunities, evident from their last outing against Bournemouth (2-2). The Cherries dominated the play, with an expected goals tally of 3.37, yet the Londoners achieved their objective thanks to Callum Wilson's first-half brace. Notably, goalkeeper Alphonse Areola provided the assist for the opening goal.

Liverpool Team Overview
Liverpool are hitting rock bottom. Their matches against Aston Villa (2-0) and Real Madrid (1-0) turned out to be mere flashes in the pan. The team has suffered six defeats in their last seven Premier League fixtures, dropping them to a staggering 12th place. It seems Arne Slot is at a loss on how to rectify the situation, especially after their Champions League debacle earlier this week.
When a visiting PSV thrashes you 4-1 at Anfield, there are no excuses. The Reds have conceded 3 or more goals in three consecutive matches for the first time since 1992, and it's not the new recruits who are faltering but the seasoned players. For instance, Virgil van Dijk has conceded more penalties (3) than any other player in the Premier League this season! Ibrahima Konaté also made another costly mistake, sparking rumors that Real Madrid have pulled out of a potential transfer for the defender.

Latest news
West Ham United
🎙 "We capitalized on our advantage in the first half, scoring through simple balls into the box, but then the game changed. We found ourselves under pressure. We dropped too deep, and I thought we needed to make adjustments. We should have defended better in our own penalty area," said Nuno Espírito Santo after the match against Bournemouth.
❌ Oliver Scarles will definitely miss the upcoming match. Konstantinos Mavropanos and Crysencio Summerville are close to returning, but Espírito Santo is unsure if they'll be ready to take the field.
Liverpool
🎙 Curtis Jones spoke candidly following the defeat to PSV: "We still wear this badge on our chest. And as long as it's there, we must always fight. We'll try to bring the team back to where it belongs. We'll try to show everyone again what this club is all about and why people have called us the best team in the world. But right now, we're in a mess, and that needs to change."
❌ Jeremie Frimpong, Stefan Bajcetic, Giovanni Leone, and Conor Bradley remain sidelined. Alisson and Florian Wirtz have returned to training and are expected to be available against West Ham. However, Hugo Ekitike, who picked up an injury in the Champions League match, will not be able to assist his teammates.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
The match will be officiated by Darren England, known for his strict refereeing style. In the current Premier League season, he averages four yellow cards per game. Considering the emotional state of Liverpool's players right now, we expect them to receive at least a couple of "yellows" from the Englishman. Our pick is over 1.5 yellow cards for the visitors. The Reds have surpassed this mark in 10 of their last 11 Premier League matches.
⚽️ Goal Prediction
Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk continue to accumulate defensive errors, and there are simply no replacements for them. Therefore, it's hard to imagine Liverpool's defense suddenly becoming reliable. Following this logic, we believe in a West Ham goal and are backing both teams to score (yes)-a bet that has come through in 6 of the last 8 head-to-head encounters between these teams in London.
🚩 Corner Prediction
The Hammers are among the league leaders in corner kicks during home games, averaging 6.17 per match. Liverpool are quite vulnerable at their own end, allowing opponents to take 5.2 corners per game. West Ham earn over 4.5 corners in 6 of their last 7 home Premier League matches, and we believe the Londoners will do it again.
Editorial Prediction
Considering Liverpool's deep crisis, the odds offered by bookmakers are surprising. Yes, West Ham have historically been a favorable opponent for the Reds, but they are currently in form, while the Merseysiders are clearly struggling. Nuno Espírito Santo doesn't employ tactically complex football, but he doesn't need to; Liverpool's biggest challenges come from teams that play traditional British football, characterized by long balls and physical battles. Moreover, the hosts boast two stars, Lucas Paquetá and Jarrod Bowen, who can change the game with their individual brilliance.
Taking this into account, we anticipate West Ham picking up points and expect the usual high-scoring nature of head-to-head encounters at the London Stadium. In recent matches between West Ham and Liverpool, there have been plenty of goals scored. Our main bet is on over 2.5 goals, but we believe there will be even more, likely resulting in a 2-2 draw.
