Welcome to our live coverage of Arne Slot's press conference to preview Liverpool's Premier League clash at home to West Ham United on Saturday. The Reds boss will be with us at 9am.

Top of the agenda will be the fitness of playmaker Florian Wirtz, who missed last Sunday's last-gasp 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest after injuring his back in the warm-up. Wirtz was not captured among the training pictures released by Liverpool yesterday (Thursday), raising doubts over whether he will be fit to face the relegation-threatened Hammers.

But one man who was pictured was Jeremie Frimpong, who could now be in line to make his first appearance in a month, which would go some way to solving Slot's problems at right-back. Paul Gorst and Ian Doyle are at the AXA Training Centre to bring you live updates from the press conference.
