West Ham manager David Moyes has made two changes from the team that lost to Manchester City on the weekend for tonight's clash with Brighton.
Aaron Cresswell has not been deemed fit to start following an injury picked up against City when he collided with the post after making an exceptional goalline clearance.
Vladimir Coufal has come into the side for Cresswell meaning that Ben Johnson will switch to left-back with Coufal in his usual right-back role.
The only other change to the team is the return of Jarrod Bowen who was not included from the start against City. Bowen returns to the team in place of Arthur Maskuaku who drops to the bench.
Craig Dawson and Kurt Zouma make up the rest of the backline with the pair continuing their partnership in the heart of the Hammers' defence. Lukasz Fabianski once again has got the nod ahead of Alphonse Areola in goal.
Ahead of the backline, Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek will team up as usual, with Rice the skipper. Club captain Mark Noble is named on the substitutes' bench alongside Alex Kral.
Usual starters Pablo Fornals and Said Benrahma have been selected in the attacking midfield roles with Bowen joining them behind lone striker Michail Antonio.
Nikola Vlasic, Andriy Yarmolenko and Manuel Lanzini provide Moyes with attacking options off the bench should the manager require them. Issa Diop will act as defensive cover should they be needed. Youngster Sonny Perkins appears in a Premier League match day squad for the first time.
