West Ham manager David Moyes has made just one change from the team that saw off Liverpool 3-2 - the enforced replacement of Angelo Ogbonna following his ACL injury.
Craig Dawson is the man to get the nod ahead of Issa Diop and will partner Kurt Zouma in central defence. Dawson's inclusion will see Zouma move to left centre-back and the Englishman will slot into his usual right-sided position.
With Moyes only making one change to his team the manager has decided to keep his faith with the in form Ben Johnson and leave Vladimir Coufal on the bench.
Aaron Cresswell as usual is taking his place at left-back with Lukasz Fabianski once again in goal for the Hammers.
Ahead of the backline, Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek will team up as usual in Moyes' 4-2-3-1 formation with Rice the skipper. Club captain Mark Noble is named on the substitutes' bench.
The attacking midfield trio is made up of the usual starters Pablo Fornals, Said Benrahma and Jarrod Bowen. Nikola Vlasic and Andriy Yarmolenko have both returned to fitness and got plenty of minutes for their countries during the international break and are back in the matchday squad with the pair on the substitutes bench should Moyes require them.
Fornals was a slight doubt after missing Spain's final match of the World Cup qualifying group but his knock was only minor and he is fit to start for West Ham this afternoon.
Michail Antonio returned to the UK in time for training on Thursday thanks to the generosity of co-chairman David Sullivan who provided a private jet for the Jamaican international and fresh from two wonder goals for the Reggae Boyz the striker will no doubt be heading into this match full of confidence.
