Liverpool will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing FA Cup draw at Shrewsbury when they take on West Ham at the London Stadium in Wednesday's Premier League clash.
The Reds suffered a rare setback in an otherwise outstanding season on Sunday, throwing away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 against League One opposition.

West Ham vs Liverpool Team News
Lukasz Fabianski, Ryan Fredericks, Jack Wilshere, Andriy Yarmolenko, Felipe Anderson, and Arthur Masuaku are all ruled out for the hosts, while Robert Snodgrass is doubtful.
Nathaniel Clyne is a long-term absentee while James Milner, Sadio Mane, and Xherdan Shaqiri are all doubtful, although Adam Lallana should be back in contention following illness.
West Ham vs Liverpool Preview
While it wouldn’t make sense to read too much into Liverpool’s result against Shrewsbury due to the entirely rotated line-up, the same can’t really be said for the Hammers’ home defeat against West Brom.
In fact, the Premier League side went down 1-0 in their own back yard despite playing an arguably less-weakened team than their lower league opponents, making the result all the more disappointing.
On current form, is hard to see them competing with Jurgen Klopp’s runaway league leaders, who are enjoying a 14-game winning streak in the league.
