West Ham vs Everton
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: London Stadium
Date: Saturday, 30 March, 2019
Kick-off time: 5:30pm GMT
West Ham welcome Everton to the capital on Saturday evening as they look to tighten their grip on a top 10 finish.
Manuel Pellegrini is hoping to end his first season at the London Stadium in style with their home form key to a strong finish.
The Hammers have won four of their last five games in east London – only dropping points against Liverpool in that period.
Everton are also looking to finish on a strong note after a difficult first season under Marco Silva, with hope a victory over Chelsea at Goodison Park before the international break could be a turning point.
West Ham vs Everton team news and predicted line-ups
Samir Nasri is a doubt due to a calf injury. Fellow midfielder Jack Wilshere is still out with an ankle problem but is due back in full training next week.
Andy Carroll, Andriy Yarmolenko, Carlos Sanchez and Winston Reid remain sidelined.
Provisional squad: Fabianski, Fredericks, Balbuena, Diop, Cresswell, Rice, Noble, Lanzini, Anderson, Hernandez, Antonio, Adrian, Zabaleta, Ogbonna, Masuaku, Obiang, Snodgrass, Arnautovic.
Everton will be without centre-half Yerry Mina. The Colombia defender suffered a hamstring injury playing for his country during the international break and faces several weeks out.
Lucas Digne, Andre Gomes and Phil Jagielka are all in contention, however, while the on-loan Kurt Zouma is available again after missing the Chelsea match against his parent club.
Provisional squad: Pickford, Stekelenburg, Keane, Zouma, Baines, Digne, Jagielka, Coleman, Kenny, Gomes, Sigurdsson, McCarthy, Gueye, Schneiderlin, Davies, Walcott, Tosun, Bernard, Calvert-Lewin, Richarlison, Lookman.
West Ham XI: Fabianski, Zabaleta, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice, Antonio, Noble, Lanzini, Anderson, Arnautovic
Everton XI: Pickford, Coleman, Keane, Zouma, Baines, Gueye, Gomes, Richarlison, Sigurdsson, Bernard, Calvert-Lewin
Score prediction: West Ham 2-1 Everton
West Ham appear to have found the winning formula at home and with Everton facing the possibility of being without half of their regular backline, a home win could be on the cards.
