Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has made one change to his starting lineup for the visit to West Ham United at Upton Park this afternoon.

Mamadou Sakho comes into defence in place of Daniel Agger as Rodgers' only modification from the team that hammered Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 last weekend.

Marksmen Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge, who have scored a combined 49 Premier League goals this season, continue to lead the line for the Reds.

Likewise, Hammers boss Sam Allardyce also makes one change to his first XI from the 2-1 win away to Sunderland on Monday night, as Pablo Armero replaces George McCartney in defence.

Andy Carroll spearheads United's attack against his former club in East London this afternoon.

West Ham United: Adrian; Reid, Tomkins, Armero, Demel; Taylor, Downing, Nolan, Noble, Diame; Carroll

Liverpool: Mignolet; Johnson, Flanagan, Sakho, Skrtel; Gerrard, Henderson, Coutinho; Sterling, Suarez, Sturridge
