POINTS HAUL
Only reigning Premier League champions Manchester City (80) and reigning European champions Chelsea (66) have earned more Premier League points in 2021 than West Ham (62).
This is already the most points West Ham have won in a single calendar year in the competition.

TAKING THE MIC
Michail Antonio has been directly involved in 17 goals in his last 22 Premier League games at the London Stadium for West Ham (11 goals, 6 assists).
He is also the top scorer (19) and assister (12) at the London Stadium and is one of three current players to be outright top for both goals and assists at a stadium in the Premier League, along with Jamie Vardy at the King Power and Raúl Jiménez at Molineux.
Antonio has also scored five in nine appearances against Liverpool for the Hammers.

GOOD AFTERNOON
And welcome to the live blog for West Ham vs Liverpool!
David Moyes' high flying Hammers welcome title-chasing Liverpool to the London Stadium.
The Reds are yet to be beaten across all competitions this season.
They're coming into the game off the back of a 2-0 win over LaLiga champions Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.
Whereas West Ham were held to a draw in Genk.
Today's game is a must win for both teams.
A win for Liverpool takes them one point behind table toppers Chelsea and two clear of Manchester City.
However, a win for West Ham sees the Hammers leapfrog Liverpool and go into third.
In terms of team news, Andriy Yarmolenko and Nikola Vlasic are both doubts having missed the Hammers' Europa League game on Thursday.
Vladimir Coufal got some minutes under his belt against Genk to regain fitness after a spell on the sidelines with an injury.
But in-form academy product Ben Johnson is expected to start in the right-back department.
As for Liverpool, they will be without Roberto Firmino, Joe Gomez, Curtis Jones, Naby Keita, James Milner and Harvey Elliott.
Firmino picked up a 'serious hamstring injury' in the Atletico game.
Thiago is expected to come into the midfield for the Reds.
The teamsheets are due to be released shortly, so don't go anywhere!
