Premier League make official announcement ahead of Liverpool v West Ham United
Liverpool will look to get back to winning ways on Saturday when they host West Ham United at Anfield.
Liverpool were on the end of a surprise 3-2 loss during their most recent outing against Fulham, suffering only their second defeat of the season in the Premier League.
Losing is something that Arne Slot’s men are not used to this season, but they have suffered several defeats lately after being knocked out of the Champions League against PSG and losing the EFL Cup final against Newcastle United.
Liverpool will be attempting to get their season back on track against the Hammers, especially as they chase down a potential Premier League title.
Liverpool have an 11-point gap over Arsenal at the moment, but they will not want to risk inviting the Gunners the chance to close that gap moving forward.
Premier League announces officials for Anfield clash
Liverpool defeated Merseyside rivals Everton in the first game back from the international break, but they will need to hit a consistent run of form to ensure they finish the season in style.
The Premier League has now officially revealed who the matchday officials will be this weekend, as Andy Madley will be the referee for Liverpool’s game against West Ham.

Scott Ledger and Mat Wilkes will be his assistants, while Tony Harrington is going to be the fourth official.
John Brooks will be in charge of things from a VAR perspective at Stockley Park, while Steve Meredith rounds out the team as the assistant VAR.
Liverpool want to finish Premier League title race
Liverpool have dominated the Premier League title race throughout the season, but they will not want to slow down at the final hurdle.
Gary Neville admitted it wasn’t a surprise to see them take the foot off the gas and lose against Fulham, but fans will now be expecting them to immediately get back to their best from this point on, especially with no other competitions to distract them.
Liverpool are expected to be without Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez this weekend, while Alisson Becker is a doubt heading into the game after suffering a head injury for Brazil.
