West Ham vs Tottenham LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction today

Mohamed Salah, who has scored in each of his side’s last six league matches, registered three goals in two appearances at Old Trafford last season - no Liverpool player has ever scored in three consecutive away games against Manchester United.

Liverpool have scored three or more goals in eight consecutive away games in all competitions, netting 28 goals in total.

That sequence includes five top-flight matches - the only side to have scored at least three goals in six consecutive Premier League away fixtures are Manchester United, who did so last season.

Anyone who doubts Mohamed Salah’s greatness is delusional. The Liverpool striker is not just one of the finest players in the world. He is up there with the very best in the club’s history. That puts the 29-year-old in a very elite group.

There have been so many wonderful stars in the Anfield galaxy that it takes a special individual to be worthy of comparison. In living history Kenny Dalglish tops the pile, with John Barnes and Steven Gerrard able to make a case that they are the most illustrious. Graeme Souness is in the mix but the midfielder’s role was so different to Salah’s that it would be foolish to contrast the two. One thing is clear: the Egyptian has crashed the top five.

Manchester United have conceded in each of their last 12 league and cup home matches, their longest run without an Old Trafford clean sheet since a 13-game sequence ending in February 1964.

United have only taken eight points from their previous seven top-flight home games with two wins, two draws and three defeats.

Manchester United have won just one of the last 10 Premier League meetings, though six of those games have been drawn.

Liverpool won 4-2 at Old Trafford in May and are vying to claim back-to-back league victories away to United for the first time since 2002.

Cristiano Ronaldo believes Manchester United are in a period of adaptation since his shock summer return to Old Trafford, but says that he is ready to “sacrifice” to help the team achieve its goals.

The 36-year-old has scored six goals in eight appearances after re-joining the club he left in 2009 from Juventus in August, including late Champions League winners against both Villarreal and Atalanta to ensure the Red Devils stand top of their group with three matches played.

Reaction to come from West Ham’s victory over Tottenham at the London Stadium but the focus switches to Old Trafford where Manchester United take on Liverpool.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer names an unchanged side to the one that came from behind to beat Atalanta 3-2 on Wednesday night meaning Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes are fit to play.

Jurgen Klopp meanwhile swaps out two players from his midweek team. Sadio Mane and Joel Matip are replaced with Diogo Jota and Ibrahima Konate.

Here are the line-ups:

Man Utd XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw, Fred, McTominay, Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford, Ronaldo

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson, Keita, Henderson, Milner, Salah, Firmino, Jota

All 52 of Michail Antonio’s Premier League goals have been scored from inside the penalty area. Only Tim Cahill (56) and Chicharito (53) have scored more goals in the competition with 100% of them coming from inside the box.

90+3 mins: West Ham get the victory! Michail Antonio’s goal is the difference between the teams in a well-fought battle at the London Stadium.

The Hammers move above Tottenham, Brighton and Manchester United to take a spot in the top four.

90 mins: The changes are made. Moura for Bergwijn, Bowen for Dawson. There’s three minutes of added time to play. Cresswell boots a free kick into the Tottenham and Antonio is beaten to the ball by Romero.
