The Hammers will be without the services of Andriy Yarmolenko, Andy Carroll and Winston Reid for the game, according to West Ham’s official website.
The report added that Manuel Lanzini, Winston Reid, Samir Nasri, Carlos Sanchez and Aaron Cresswell could all be set to make their first-team returns. The Hammers will have to make do without the services of Robert Snodgrass for Saturday’s game after the midfielder picked up his 10th yellow card last weekend and will be out for the rest of the season.
Pedro Obiang is expected to start the game and will join Mark Noble and Declan Rice in midfield.
West Ham will go into this side as the slight favourites.
