Hammers fully fit for Anfield

|

The Hammers look set to have a fully fit squad available for the visit to Anfield with Manu Lanzini set to rejoin the action at some stage today.

Word is that Manu will start on the bench but could get some minutes later on given his obvious lack of match fitness for such a difficult looking fixture.

The Hammers could look like this: Adrian, Zabaleta, Reid, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Antonio, Noble, Kouyate, Mario, Chicharito, Arnautovic.

Liverpool have no injury worries for the clash with midfielder Emre Can available again after being suspended for last week’s Champions League victory over Porto.

Defender Joe Gomez could return to the starting line-up for the first time this month after overcoming a knee injury.

Provisional squad: Karius, Gomez, Van Dijk, Lovren, Moreno, Henderson, Can, Milner, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane, Mignolet, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Robertson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lallana, Ings, Solanke.
