West Ham will reportedly welcome back Ryan Fredericks for the trip to Everton after the international break.
The 28-year-old had to be replaced early on in the Carabao Cup victory over Manchester United after setting up the only goal of the match.
The full-back missed the subsequent Europa League clash with Rapid Vienna and Premier League defeat to Brentford.
According to a report from Claret and Hugh, Fredericks is in line to return after the break.
The report suggests that the former England youth international could be required from the start as first-choice right-back Vladimir Coufal struggles for fitness.
Coufal pulled out of the Czech Republic squad due to an ongoing groin issue and faces a race against time to be ready for the Goodison Park meeting.
So far this season Fredericks has only played 107 minutes across three appearances in all competitions.

Fredericks’ injury was a cruel blow having made such a bright start at Old Trafford.
David Moyes will want the strongest possible squad available for the trip to his former employers, especially given Everton’s eye-catching recent form.
Members of the Hammers faithful will be hopeful of more positive news when it comes to Declan Rice after the England ace seemed to be absent from training earlier this week.
