Irons on TV again v Rubin Kazan

Antonio – lIkely to start

The Irons will again feature on Premier Sports when they take on Russian outfit Rubin Kazan in their second pre-season Austrian tour this evening.

And for those who can’t get in front of a TV set at that time of the day ClaretandHugh will again be bringing a live reporting service from the match – so tune in here just before 5pm!

After the disappointment of being clawed back to  a 2-2 draw at the death in yesterday’s match, Slaven Bilic will be looking for his first win of pre-season either in Europe or the States where the record stands at one defeat and two draws thus far.

We are likely to see a stronger side than the one fielded against Slovacko yesterday and it will be interesting to see if Andy Carroll makes an appearance.

Andy – whilst reported not injured as such – has been scanned following the return from the USA fter suffering some anxiety from a groin issue.

This is likely to be a much tougher run-out than yesterday’s game although we can expect to see Ashley Fletcher pushing hard for a start after scoring on his first appearance in a Hammers shirt yesterday.

Michail Antonio is likely to start along with the likes of Aaron Cresswell and Cheik Kouyate.

KICK OFF 5PM
