Scamacca leads the line against Foxes

|

David Moyes has placed his trust in Gianluca Scamacca to lead the line for West Ham against Leicester.

The Hammers need to win the game to recover some form ahead of the international break.

And Moyes has selected a familiar team as he aims to break a poor recent run.

That means Lukasz Fabianski in goal, with a back four of Thilo Kehrer, Craig Dawson, Kurt Zouma and Aaron Cresswell.

Skipper Declan Rice is joined by Tomas Soucek in midfield, while Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta, and Said Benrahma provide support to Scamacca up front.

It looks a good team on paper at least!

Full West Ham XI: Fabianski, Cresswell, Zouma, Scamacca, Paqueta, Dawson, Bowen, Benrahma, Kehrer, Soucek, Rice

Subs: Areola, Johnson, Coufal, Fornals, Lanzini, Downes, Ogbonna, Aguerd, Emerson

Full Leicester XI: Ward, Faes, Barnes, Tielemans, Maddison, Amartey, Daka, Dewsbury-Hall, Castagne, Thomas, Soumare

Subs: Iverson, Evans, Vardy, Albrighton, Iheanacho, Perez, Mendy, Ndidi, Praet

    Moyes is gone after selecting Kehrer, Soucek and Bowen. How on earth can he continue as manager. He has to go today, nothing will change with him in charge. What has Fornals got to do to start, what fas Soucek got to do to be dropped. Moyes has to be sacked.
