Confirmed West Ham team vs Everton: Randolph and Fornals both start

David Moyes has made four changes to his starting lineup from the team that lost to Sheffield United as the Hammers take on Everton at London Stadium.

Darren Randolph, Issa Diop, Pablo Fornals and Robert Snodgrass all come into the team as David Martin, Fabian Balbuena, Felipe Anderson and Arthur Masuaku all miss out.

The latter two were injury doubts prior to the game as revealed by David Moyes on Thursday at his pre-match press conference and neither have made the matchday 18 for Saturday's game.

It also appears that Moyes has reverted back to a flat back four, with Pablo Zabaleta, Diop, Angelo Ogbonna and Aaron Cresswell in front of a debutant in Darren Randolph, who makes his London Stadium bow for a second time.

Snodgrass comes into the midfielder for Anderson, while Fornals is recalled having been on the bench against Sheffield United and starts alongside Manuel Lanzini, Declan Rice and captain Mark Noble.

It could be a long and lonely day up front for Sebastien Haller, who is named as the lone striker.
