It's back to business for Liverpool tonight as they travel to the capital to take on West Ham United.
And there will be pressure on Jurgen Klopp's side to deliver the goods at the London Stadium after their lead at the top was cut to two points following Manchester City's win over Arsenal.
But, judging by West Ham's recent form, and judging by the recent history between the teams, you would back the Reds to get the job done.
The Hammers were well beaten at Wolves in the week, have lost each of their last three matches, have major injury problems, and have conceded four goals in each of their last four games with Liverpool.
That said, they have shown already this season they can beat and be a match for the top six and, in the likes of Felipe Anderson, they boast players who could pose a problem to Klopp's injury-hit defence.
But surely the Reds will have too much?
To find out, Paul Wheelock speaks to Sam Inkersole, who covers West Ham for the Football.London website.
They talk the Hammers' progress since their opening day beating at Anfield, their Marko Arnautovic saga, the one player they are missing more than any other, the aforementioned Anderson, and what the atmosphere at the new ground is like nowadays and what it could be like tonight.
Enjoy - and we'll be back after the match with the Post-Game podcast. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
