LIVEWest Ham vs Liverpool - Premier League: Live score, team news and updates as Jurgen Klopp's side look to bounce back from damaging derby day defeat against Europe chasing Hammers

David Moyes has given his final thoughts on the game, speaking to TNT Sports:

I'd like us to be a lot more compact in the last game and we're going to have to defend much better than we did. Ove the years we've been pretty good at it and we'll need to today.'

Jarrod has been a huge goalscorer for us this season, probably our main player that way. I've still got hope that he'll get 20 goals and that means he's still got a few to get this season now and hopefully he can start today.

The belief levels are always high. The realistic levels are that we've got some really good teams, teams that have spent billions below us and above us so it makes tat really difficult.

We've given it a good go, we've got three weeks to go in the season, hardly been out of the top six or seven so our plan today is to make sure we're still in that position come the end of today's play.

The warm-ups are well underway on the pitch at the London Stadium.

It's quite chilly out today, so it could take a while for the players to get their muscles going.

Jurgen Klopp is watching on.

Kick off is in around 15 minutes.

Ally McCoist has been speaking of Van Dijk's criticism on TNT Sports, and backed up the Liverpool man.

He suggested the Everton defeat was very unLiverpool-like. That's a new word for you.

It's absolutely fair because their form has been questionable. The difference with the Palace game is that they missed a few chances but so did Palace. But at least they created chances, they had more about them in that defeat.

The defeat the other night was so unlike Liverpool. In a derby game they looked like they were outfought, outrun, outthought and it was a really poor performance.

'These things [poor results] can happen. You miss chances but that was a worrying performance for me the other night.

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk was the man to step up to the media after defeat to Everton, and certainly did not hold back.

He questioned his team-mates' desire to win the league, said they 'don't deserve' to, and demanded more.

You can read his full rant below. Fair play, I say.

There is perhaps no Liverpool fan with a voice bigger than Jamie Carragher.

The Reds legend went on a pretty stern rant after Liverpool lost to Everton in the week, criticising the set-up for the title run in, Nunez, the lot.

You can read the best bits below.

There are some pretty glum faces on show as the Liverpool players arrive at the London Stadium.

One wonders what's going through their heads.

A big game for them today.

It's a bit of a weird situation, isn't it?

I don't have any stats to hand, but it feels as though Liverpool just miss so many chances. Whether that is swayed by Nunez's struggles I'm not sure, but something isn't right.

There have been reports that Michael Edwards hasn't been best pleased with Liverpool's business in his absence. Mane and Firmino essentially replaced by Diaz and Nunez, the midfield struggles of last yeah, etc. etc.

Maybe the Reds will do business this summer. Maybe one or two will leave. What is for sure, though, is that Klopp is clearly unhappy enough to make the changes.

Let me know your take in the comments.

The big news for West Ham is that Jarrod Bowen is back fit and ready to start. That is huge for them.

David Moyes has, however, made only two chances. Bowen comes in for Ward-Prowse, meaning Paqueta will likely go central, and there's also a chance in goal, with Alphonse Areola replacing Lucasz Fabianski between the sticks.

A big call to change so few after the Crystal Palace humilation. A 'go out there and put it right' sort of thing, maybe.

The big call in the Liverpool team is that both Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez have been relegated to the bench. Klopp is clearly not happy with his side's finishing in recent games. so he's switched up both the front line and the midfield. Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai also drop to the bench.

Five changes in total - Konate, Szoboszlai, Jones, Salah and Nunez out, Quansah, Endo, Gravenberch, Elliott and Gakpo in.

Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Ogbonna, Emerson, Alvarez, Soucek, Paqueta, Kudus, Bowen, Antonio.

Subs: Fabianski, Cresswell, Johnson, Cornet, Ward-Prowse, Phillips, Casey, Mubama, Ings.

Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Quansah, Van Dijk, Robertson, Mac Allister, Endo, Gravenberch, Elliott, Gakpo, Diaz.

Subs: Kelleher, Gomez, Konate, Szoboszlai, Jones, Tsimikas, Bajcetic, Nunez, Salah.

Admittedly, a lot of focus is on Liverpool today, but West Ham have their own let's say situation, going on.

No one seems to know if David Moyes will be in charge next year. Officials seem to have met Ruben Amorim. He doesn't want the job. They're chasing Europe one week and getting thumped the next.

Last time out, the Hammers lost 5-2 to Crystal Palace, before that being knocked out of the Europa League and tasting defeat against Fulham. They've not actaully won since the start of the month.

Now is a good a time as any to bounce back, I suppose.

Nonetheless, that is next season, and we are here to focus on today.

Klopp's Liverpool have seen their season crumble before their eyes in the last few weeks. It started with an FA Cup defeat to rivals Manchester United, and has since seen them crash out of the Europa League and lose back-to-back Prem gaames against Crystal Palace and, er, rivals, Everton.

Their title hopes seem all-but-over, which means a potential Quadruple will end up being just a Carabao Cup, but they will want to end the season, and Klopp's reign, on a high.

We'll have team news in around, oooh, 12 minutes.

Klopp has been in charge of Liverpool for eight years. It's going to be weird when he leaves, especially for Liverpool fans.

There were always going to be questions asked about his replacement. Slot is going to be the man, it seems, and he's come with mixed reviews, but what will be, will be.

Klopp himself broke his silence on Slot's impending appointment in the build-up to this game.

'I am not involved in the process, just to clarify that,’ he said. ‘(But) I like a lot about it if he is the one. He wants to take the job. Come on, let’s go for it. Excited.'

Full quotes are below.

There is only one place to start today. It looks like Liverpool have got their man.

The Reds and Feyenoord have verbally agreed for Dutch manager Arne Slot to take over from Jurgen Klopp from the start of next season.

Mail Sport reported on Friday morning that the two clubs were close to finding an agreement and that deal, which could reach up to £9.42million, was brokered late in the evening.

The Dutchman will be the person to lead the new era for the Premier League side. Who knows what to expect?

Read the full story from Lewis Steele and Sami Mokbel below.

Good morning one and all and welcome to Mail Sport's live coverage of this afternoon's Premier League game between West Ham and Liverpool. Virgil van Dijk is gutted we are here.

The Reds are looking to salvage what is left of their season after seeing Jurgen Klopp's farewell tour hit pretty much every bump in the road over the last month or so, and some pretty big ones at that.

West Ham are still chasing Europe.

We will kick off at 1:30.
