Liverpool beat visiting West Ham 3-0 in today’s only Premier League match to stay in contention for European qualification.
Goals from Yossi Benayoun and David Ngog plus an own-goal from West Ham goalkeeper Robert Green at Anfield lifted Liverpool into sixth place over Aston Villa, which have played one fewer match.
The five-time European champions are unlikely to clinch a top-four spot and a place in next season\'s Champions League but can make sure of a spot in the second-tier Europa League by finishing fifth or sixth.
Liverpool have 59 points from 35 matches, five points behind fourth-place Tottenham.
