West Ham manager David Moyes has kept faith with the majority of the team that lost 2-1 late on against Brentford in their last Premier League match.
Moyes has opted against making a change in goal and has made just the one enforced switch in his backline despite only one clean sheet in the league so far this season.
Vladimir Coufal has failed to recover from a minor groin injury that kept him out of international duty and is replaced by Ben Johnson at right-back.
The manager has kept faith with Lukasz Fabianski despite coming under increasing fan pressure to hand Alphonse Areola his Hammers league debut with the Frenchman once again on the substitute's bench. Angelo Ogbonna has also held onto his starting place despite an uncharacteristic error in the build-up to Brentford's opening goal two weeks ago.
Kurt Zouma once again lines up alongside Ogbonna with Aaron Cresswell completing the back four.
Declan Rice captains the team in central midfielder lining up alongside usual partner Tomas Soucek in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
The attacking midfield trio is made up of Pablo Fornals, Said Benrahma and Jarrod Bowen with Nikola Vlasic having to settle for a spot on the bench against his former team.
Michail Antonio, fresh from a two week break after rejecting Jamaica's international call-up leads the Hammers line.
