The Irons have the unenviable task of attempting to become the first team to take points off Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League this season.
Liverpool have won 25 of their 26 league games in this campaign, with their only draw coming at Old Trafford.
Opta's Orbinho put their 76 points in perspective:

Liverpool have more points this season than Manchester United managed in winning the title in 1996-97. Still 12 games to play.
The Reds faced West Ham at the London Stadium on January 29, when they picked up a routine 2-0 win courtesy of goals from Mohamed Salah and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain:
They'll be without club captain Jordan Henderson after the midfielder suffered a hamstring injury against Atleti on Tuesday.
Football writer Leanne Prescott believes his absence will be a significant blow to Jurgen Klopp's side:

Could’ve been a lot worse but Henderson is going to be a massive miss over the next few weeks. In the form of his life as the lynchpin of the side and so influential at both ends of the field. Ox/Keita will need to step up in his absence.
Even so, it's difficult to imagine West Ham getting anything from the game.
David Moyes' outfit didn't manage a single shot on target as they were beaten 2-0 by Man City on Wednesday.
The Times‘ Henry Winter wasn't impressed:

West Ham need to wake up fast. They are 18th and sleep-walking towards relegation. They have some good players, Fabianski, Cresswell, Ogbonna, Rice, Antonio etc, & Noble is all heart, but their tactics/mindset were far too cautious. No urgency, little pace. Start Bowen. #MCIWHU
West Ham have won just three league matches since September 22, and they're without a win in seven games in all competitions. Their last victory came against Gillingham in the FA Cup on January 5.
Liverpool have won five of their last six meetings with West Ham, and they've not lost to them in any competition since February 2016.
