West Ham take on the visitors Liverpool in the round 19 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, December 29th at
"West Ham", or rather Moyes, who worked with them recently, themselves have become hostages of their own success. The team won the Conference League in 2023 in great style! The following season, without the sold captain, Rice, they managed to finish in the top half of the Premier League and reach the Europa League playoffs... But they still decided to fire the old-school Scot in London. But his successor, Lopetegui, received newcomers for more than 100 million... And he failed with them, and in the League Cup he quickly flew out, after a 1-5 defeat by Liverpool, and in the Premier League, if there is a fight, it is for survival. Julen was constantly under threat of resignation, but at a key moment his charges won against a direct competitor, Wolverhampton, and then shared points with Bournemouth, finishing 1-1 away. They repeated the same score with Brighton, and even managed to beat Southampton — one goal was enough there.

Liverpool — a case where appetites grow in the process. The Reds actually met the current season with anxiety. Yes, they reached the final 3rd place last year, adding the League Cup — but even then it was clear that Klopp was taking the last trophy in his last season in England. And they were afraid of how much the team would sag after his departure. But in fact, the Merseysiders are already in the semi-finals of the League Cup, they have reached the playoffs of the Champions League ahead of schedule, having won all 6 matches in 2024. And in the Premier League, they managed to take sole leadership. But in December, the gap began to melt. Grand did not win against Newcastle and Fulham in a row, ending with high-scoring draws. But then there were confident, spectacular victories: 6-3 with Tottenham, a strong-willed 3-1 with Leicester.
In April, the Hammers drew - for the first time in 6 head-to-head matches they did not lose. But in the new season, Slot defeated Lopetegui in the League Cup 5-1. The Hammers no longer need a win so badly, and the Reds continue to play at the top level. We bet that the visitors will win in London with a handicap of -1.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win with -1.5 handicap.
