Lawro jokes with Hammers fans

|

BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson predicts a 2-1 loss for the Hammers on Sunday the London Stadium.

Lawro told his BBC website readers “I have got a bit of a thing going with West Ham fans now where I always tip them to lose or draw, and then they win – so all those Hammers will be happy to see what I am going for here.

There will be a great atmosphere at London Stadium because West Ham are doing so well and one of the big teams are in town.

I think Liverpool will ruin the party, though. Jurgen Klopp’s side were very impressive against Atletico Madrid in midweek and, in terms of keeping the Hammers out, van Dijk and Joel Matip will have the answers Klopp needs against Michail Antonio.

Brighton indie band FUR singer Tav disagree and predicts a draw saying: “We disagreed on this one. I think West Ham are unbelievable and Declan Rice is just different gravy. For that reason I went for a draw. Liverpool are pretty much unstoppable right now, but they will be given a proper test here. 2-2”
