2019/20 Premier League
Round 27
22-24 February 2020
Less than a month after their catch-up clash, Liverpool and West Ham United will meet at Anfield on Monday 24 February 2020, kick-off at 22:00. The match is one of 10 spread from 22 to 24 February for the 27
h round of the
2019/20 Premier League season.
Liverpool continued their incredible form with a 25
th win from 26 Premier League matches when they edged Norwich City 1-0 away on February 15, with a goal from Sadio Mane.
The Reds defied difficult weather conditions and should be in a more free and flowing mood when the Hammers visit Merseyside. “You need to get used to circumstances and after 45 minutes we knew how it feels. More information from us at half-time and we could improve, that was obviously much better then second half,” explained Jurgen Klopp. “We had so many counter-press situations where we won the ball back, where we put them under pressure, kept them under pressure and scored a wonderful goal.

For West Ham, this clash against Liverpool follows on from a midweek game against Manchester City (which was rescheduled from it’s original slot due to inclement weather). Manager David Moyes believes the Premier League should work on having a true and compulsory break in the middle of the season.
"My experience, coming from Spain, was that it was a two-week break," said Moyes. "But one week was compulsory and if you chose to give the players a little longer, that was up to you. Here it would be better if it was a week compulsory.”
In head-to-head stats, Liverpool and West Ham have met in 140 previous matches. The Reds have claimed 75 wins compared to 28 for the Hammers, while 37 games have been drawn.
When the teams met in the Premier League earlier this season, at the London Stadium in January 2019, Liverpool claimed a comfortable 2-0 win thanks to goals from Mohamed Salah and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
