West Ham went into last weeks draw at Crystal Palace carrying just two absentees on their books in James Collins and Winston Reid but over the last six days, they have seen that number skyrocket.
Slaven Bilic’s defence has been rocked by injuries and suspensions which will force him into fielding the most makeshift of makeshift back lines.
Despite returning to training this week, James Collins still hasn’t recovered enough from his ankle injury and he won’t be involved tomorrow.
Pablo Zabaleta received his fifth yellow card of the season at Selhurst Park meaning he is suspended this week, but his deputy Sam Byram suffered what is believed to be a severe injury to his quad this week which will sideline him for up to five weeks.
Jose Fonte picked up an injury during the draw at Palace and he has also been ruled out tomorrow, but Aaron Cresswell, who left the game last week at half-time with a dead leg, has recovered in time to be in contention to play.
Fellow defender Winston Reid is also in the matchday squad after missing last weeks game but Michail Antonio isn’t as a rib injury is keeping him out.
Here is a final look at our predicted XI.
