Liverpool vs West Ham Odds

Date: 13/04/25
Kick-off time: 14:00
Venue: Etihad Stadium

The Liverpool v West Ham preview sets the scene for a crucial Premier League clash at Anfield on Sunday, with kick-off scheduled for 14:00. League leaders Liverpool aim to consolidate their title push against a West Ham side battling to steer clear of relegation danger. Under Arend Martijn Slot’s intense high-pressing regime, Liverpool have dominated the campaign, while Graham Potter’s Hammers face continued struggles with form and defensive vulnerabilities. A recent 5-0 demolition by Liverpool in the reverse fixture looms over West Ham, adding extra pressure ahead of this matchday 32 encounter.

Liverpool vs West Ham United Team News

The Liverpool vs West Ham Team News presents a tale of two very different campaigns. For Liverpool, their formidable season has largely been fuelled by an unrelenting attacking output and solid home performances. Arend Slot’s men have accumulated 73 points from 30 matches, with just a single defeat all season and 12 wins in 15 home outings. They’ve netted 70 goals, with Mohamed Salah spearheading the attack and expected to be a key figure again at Anfield.

In contrast, West Ham United’s turbulent season sees them languishing in 16th place on 35 points from 31 games. Potter’s squad has often been exposed defensively, conceding 52 goals—one of the worst tallies in the division. They’ve won just 4 of 15 away games, scoring 15 and conceding 22.

Liverpool vs West Ham Betting Tips

The Liverpool v West Ham betting tips favour a home win, both in logic and statistics. Liverpool’s dominance against teams lower in the table—22 wins, 7 draws, and just 2 defeats in 31 such matches—strongly indicates a continuation of form. Furthermore, their home form is exceptional, with 12 wins from 15 at Anfield.

Given West Ham’s poor record against stronger sides—losing 12 of 25 games against teams above them—and their leaky defence away from home, Liverpool should find the net multiple times. However, Liverpool’s tendency to concede, even in wins, makes “Both Teams to Score: Yes” a high-value secondary market. The Hammers have failed to score in just 2 of their away games, while Liverpool have conceded in 9 of their 15 home fixtures.

Those seeking higher odds may consider a handicap bet, particularly Liverpool -1.5, which aligns well with their average winning margin at Anfield and the gulf in squad quality.

Liverpool v West Ham United Match Predictions

Our Liverpool vs West Ham prediction is a confident home win for the Reds. Despite a slight dip in recent form—two wins from the last five matches—Liverpool’s attacking firepower and tactical intensity should overwhelm a disjointed West Ham unit.

West Ham are likely to get on the scoresheet, capitalising on Liverpool’s occasional defensive errors. However, the hosts’ superior quality in midfield transitions and wide areas should be too much for the visitors to cope with over the 90 minutes. Salah, in particular, is expected to thrive against West Ham’s fragile defensive structure.

Match Prediction: Liverpool to win. Bet with bet365.

Liverpool vs West Ham Correct Score Tips & Prediction

The Liverpool v West Ham score prediction is 3-1 in favour of the hosts. Liverpool’s average home output of just over two goals per game combined with West Ham’s tendency to concede more than 1.5 goals on the road supports this forecast. The Hammers have conceded 46 goals against teams above them in the table this season, with an average of 1.84 goals conceded per game in those fixtures.

West Ham are capable of scoring in isolated moments, particularly through quick transitions or set pieces, but the match dynamics suggest that their efforts will be more about damage limitation than dominance.

Correct Score Prediction: 3-1 to Liverpool. Bet with bet365.

Liverpool vs West Ham Over & Under Goals Betting Tips

The Liverpool v West Ham United Over/Under goals prediction leans firmly towards Over 2.5 goals. With Liverpool averaging 2.25 goals per game at home and West Ham conceding 22 away, the probability of a high-scoring fixture is strong.

Furthermore, the last meeting between these sides ended 5-0 in Liverpool’s favour. Given both teams’ scoring trends and defensive vulnerabilities, Over 3.5 goals is also a viable consideration for bettors seeking longer odds. The blend of attacking ambition from Liverpool and West Ham’s desperate need for points creates an open game environment conducive to goals.

Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
