West Ham starting line-up and substitutes:
The Cherries play host to the Hammers in the Premier League today, with both sides desperately in need of all three points.
Bournemouth are currently in the midst of a woeful run of form, and are without a win in seven league outings – a succession of results that has seen them drop down to 18th spot in the table.
West Ham, meanwhile, are in the midst of a mini resurgence under David Moyes, winning two and drawing one of their last four league games, and they sit one place and a point ahead of today’s opponents.
Eddie Howe’s men are renowned for playing an attractive brand of football, but the situation that they currently find themselves in might just dictate how they go about their business.
The south coast outfit can climb as high as 13th in the Premier League table with a win today, whilst David Moyes’ men can also jump up into 13th spot with all three points.
The game kicks off today at 15:00, and both teams will be looking to head into the New Year with some breathing space between themselves and those below them in the table.
