The referee for the biggest Game of the season, Liverpool vs. Man City on Sunday, has been announced as the buildup well and truly starts. Michael Oliver will be the man in the middle, with the Premier League giving the huge clash between the top two to one of their most experienced officials.

The Hammers slipped into the relegation zone on Saturday after falling to a 1-0 defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers and are only above Everton and Southampton on goal difference. That defeat was West Ham's sixth in their last seven Premier League outings and comes at at time when Nottingham Forest and other teams at the bottom are starting to build momentum - Forest have picked up three wins from their last five to pull five points clear of the drop zone. 90min revealed prior to the World Cup that West Ham were reluctant to make a change and were backing Moyes, who famously led the club to the semi-finals of last season's Europa League, in the hope that he would turn their disastrous form around.
