Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Liverpool could line up for Wednesday's Premier League clash with West Ham United.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp should once again be working around the absences of four players for Wednesday's Premier League clash with West Ham United at the London Stadium.

The Reds lost Roberto Firmino to a muscular problem prior to the weekend's 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest, and the Brazilian is not expected back before the end of the month.

Naby Keita (muscle) Stefan Bajcetic (adductor), and Calvin Ramsay (knee) are also out of contention for the visitors, while Ibrahima Konate is a slight doubt, but Klopp still has plenty of selection dilemmas to solve either way.

Fresh from scoring his 183rd goal for the club, going level with Robbie Fowler in sixth place in the Reds' all-time scoring charts, Mohamed Salah will no doubt continue in Liverpool's fierce attack.

Diogo Jota should not be demoted either after making it back-to-back braces at the weekend - no Liverpool player has done so three times in a row since Luis Suarez in 2013 - but Cody Gakpo's spot may come under threat from Darwin Nunez.

Curtis Jones ought to keep Thiago Alcantara at bay as he enjoys one of his best runs in a Liverpool jersey, with Fabinho and Jordan Henderson retaining their spots in the engine room alongside him.

Back to his creative best in a hybrid role, Trent Alexander-Arnold is poised to form an unchanged backline with Andrew Robertson, Virgil van Dijk, Alisson Becker and Konate, who ought to shake off an unspecified concern to make himself available.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Jones, Fabinho, Henderson; Salah, Nunez, Jota
