Flying Hammers face fearsome Liverpool

WEST HAM have started the season impressively, both at home and abroad, but face their toughest test yet when they welcome Liverpool to the London Stadium this weekend.

The two teams have been the most outstanding of the Premier League contingent participating in European competition this season, and have so far managed to balance this with some excellent displays domestically.

The Hammers’ performances have been the more eye-catching of the two due to their still relatively unexpected nature despite last season’s success but their manager, David Moyes, has not shied away from the challenge and is aiming to qualify for Europe again next season.
