West Ham United - Liverpool live updates

Lovely skills from Valencia from the touchline. He drives it across goal but it’s a good hold from Mignolet.

Teixeira and Reid battle for the ball.

Three times the post has come to the rescue and there have been other chances. Not sure how it’s still 0-0!

POST! Payet clatters the post with a great free kick and then Mignolet is forced to save the follow-up from Antonio's head! Drama.

Kouyate goes down under a nudge from Ibe in the air and this is a dangerous free kick for the hosts just outside the box in a central area. Payet...

So now both teams have hit the woodwork. Liverpool’s period of domination has gone unrewarded.

DOUBLE CHANCE LIVERPOOL! A loose ball from Reid is pounced upon by Benteke. He cuts back to Coutinho who rattles the post! Randolph again saves Benteke’s header from the corner!

Too many long balls from West Ham at the moment. It’s Liverpool trying to play all the football. Payet runs into trouble and his cross is easily blocked.

Benteke mistimes his run and is caught just offside. West Ham have lost their shape a little. All Liverpool at the moment.

POSSESSION: West Ham 45% - 55% Liverpool

BIG CHANCE! Liverpool break quickly and Smith bulls it back to Teixeira via a deflection but he shoots wide in a great position.

Apart from that O’Brien shot that clattered against the post, it’s been Liverpool looking the more dangerous so far tonight.

Smith gets forward well but his cross is missed by both Benteke and Ibe. Both should have done better. Stewart booked for a challenge on Kouyate.

Payet takes the corner but again, easily cleared by the Liverpool defence. Very competitive start to this one.

Handball from Smith leads to a Hammers free kick. In it comes from Payet, cleared by Ilori for a corner.

Stewart and Kouyate vie for possession.
