West Ham United host Liverpool on Sunday in an interesting Premier League clash.

After confirming their status as a Premier League club for next year, some people have been arguing that West Ham will already be on holiday and others think that West Ham can express themselves with more freedom.

Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson seems to be sitting on the fence, though.

Merson has predicted that West Ham will earn a 1-1 draw with Liverpool.

Liverpool will be travelling down to East London with plenty still to play for.

The Reds need to be picking up maximum points to ensure that they finish in the top four and win a place in the Champions League for next season.

Arsenal and Manchester United are hot on their trail and they will be coming to West Ham eager to pick up the win.

However, Merson believes that it will be a draw, although he did add that it is dependent on whether West Ham turn up.

The Sky Sports pundit believes that it is a big game for West Ham to make The London Stadium more like home.

Merson added that Liverpool have a tendency to be hit and miss against mid-table sides.

West Ham are, of course, lacking a number of first team players as they prepare to get a result against Liverpool.
