West Ham injury update

Arthur Masuaku, Angelo Ogbonna and Andriy Yarmolenko remain sidelined for today’s game at the Etihad stadium.

Masuaku who has been recovering from knee surgery is back in training but unlikely to gain match fitness until mid-March,  Ogbonna will remain out until March with an ankle injury but does not require surgery while Yarmolenko will be out for months with a medial ligament injury.

Ryan Fredericks faces a late fitness test with a groin strain which the manager described as nothing serious but he says it is touch and go whether he will be included in today’s matchday squad.

Michail Antonio has been declared fit to play and is available for selection as is Fabian Balbuena and Darren Randolph who recently returned from injuries last week.  David Moyes has no other injury or sickness concerns for today’s lunchtime game against Manchester City.

Potential West Ham Starting XI  Fabianksi, Cresswell, Dawson, Diop, Coufal, Johnson, Rice, Soucek, Fornals, Lingard, Antonio

Subs: Randolph, Bowen, Benrahma, Lanzini, Noble, Mipo, Balbuena
