Jürgen Klopp will consider making several changes to his Liverpool team at West Ham following a disappointing result in the Merseyside derby on Wednesday.

Manchester City follows closely in third place, with two games in hand on Liverpool, ahead of its trip to Brighton on Thursday.

Liverpool's focus will now be on getting back to winning ways against West Ham, with just four matches remaining in the Klopp era.



It's another early kick-off for Klopp's side, with wholesale changes possible after the derby defeat.

The defense did not cover itself in glory at Goodison Park with Ibrahima Konaté having a night to forget.

Liverpool missed his protection against Everton and he will be needed against West Ham's attacking options, while Harvey Elliott could also come in to the side.

Cody Gakpo had impressed in Liverpool's recent matches and would likely have started at Goodison Park.

Jota only recently returned from a knee injury but is now set for around two weeks out, with Conor Bradley also remaining missing.

Possible Liverpool XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; End?, Mac Allister, Elliott; Gakpo, Salah, Díaz.

Liverpool.com says: It's been a tough week for Liverpool.

It needs to get back to winning ways at West Ham and end the Klopp era on a high.
