The Irons travel to Leicester City for a 12noon kick-off looking for back-to-back top-flight wins after beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 4-0 f last weekend.
It’s the toughest of calls after the Foxes – with a 100 per cent record so far this season – stuffed Manchester City 5-2 last weekend which included a Jamie Vardy hat-trick taking his tally for the season to five.
The game will be screened live in the UK by BT Sport, with coverage starting at 11.30am, and across the world by the Premier League’s international broadcast partners. Click here for broadcast listings in your territory.
Before kick-off, fans will also hear the new Premier League anthem. VAR has also changed for this season, with on-field referees expected to use their pitchside screens far more often, while there are also some alterations to laws around encroachment at penalty kicks.
The Irons could hand a debut to £5 million signing Vladimír Coufal and both Issa Diop and Josh Cullen available for selection again after both completed their mandatory ten-day self-isolation after testing positive for COVID-19.
Ryan Fredericks is the only player unavailable having received a hamstring injury against Wolves.
Michail Antonio will become the first West Ham player to score in five consecutive Premier League away games if he nets at King Power Stadium, having scored at Newcastle United, Norwich City, Manchester United and Arsenal in the previous four.
For Leicester City, star right-back Ricardo Pereira remains sidelined as he works his way back from knee surgery, central midfielder Wilfred Ndidi has a groin problem, while centre-back Jonny Evans suffered a calf injury in last weekend’s win at Manchester City.
Turkish midfielder Cengiz Ünder, who has joined Leicester on a season-long loan from Roma, could make his debut.
The Irons have the edge over their oppnents in terms of the Premier League with eleven wins to nine, with six draws. However, Leicester are unbeaten in the last four meetings and have won the last two.
