West Ham United host Hull City in the Premier League this afternoon.
West Ham will be looking to make it two wins in a row when they take on Hull City at the London Stadium this afternoon.
The Hammers drew 2-2 away at Liverpool last weekend before beating Burnley 1-0 in midweek, and manager Slaven Bilic has named an unchanged team today.
That means that Cheikhou Kouyate continues in the heart of defence alongside Winston Reid and Angelo Ogbonna, whilst Michail Antonio will serve as a wing back once again.
Andy Carroll starts up front for the second time in a matter of days after his return from injury, and will be supported by Dimitri Payet and Manuel Lanzini.
Summer signings Havard Nordtveit, Sofiane Feghouli and Andre Ayew are all named on the bench, along with 17-year-old playmaker Dominos Quina, who will be hoping to make an impact from as a substitute.
Meanwhile, Hull lost 3-0 at Tottenham in midweek to make it just two points gained in the last five games, and they sit second-bottom of the Premier League table.
The Tigers are only three points adrift of safety, but Mike Phelan desperately needs a result – and will be hoping to take advantage of West Ham’s shaky form at the London Stadium.
Phelan has handed a start to Dieumerci Mbokani in attack, replacing Adam Diomande, whilst the likes of Jake Livermore and Robert Snodgrass will be relied upon to support him in attack.
Shaun Maloney and Markus Henriksen are both named on the bench, alongside Eldin Jakupoic, James Weir, Jarrod Bowen, David Meyler and the aforementioned Diomande.
