Liverpool can take another step towards their first Premier League title, having won the reverse fixture 2-0 less than a month ago.
Players will wear black armbands and there will be a minute's applause before kick-off in memory of Brian Jackson, who passed away aged 86. He spent seven years at Liverpool and made 133 appearances between 1951-58.
West Ham have also requested permission to wear warm-up t shirts to remember former captain and defender Bobby Moore, who passed away today, 27 years ago.
Team news
Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has been ruled out for three weeks with a hamstring injury.
Manager Jurgen Klopp has no other injury concerns.
For West Ham, Ryan Fredericks is unavailable as David Moyes waits to hear the extent of the defender's shoulder injury, while Andriy Yarmolenko (thigh) is still not fully fit.
