Declan Rice misses out for West Ham against Liverpool after picking up a virus and not making the trip to Anfield. It is understood that Rice tested negative for COVID but was not well enough for the trip to Liverpool.
The key midfielder faced a late medical check-up on Saturday morning with a view to joining up with the squad late on but has been left in London with an eye on Sevilla in midweek.
Rice is replaced in the team by Nikola Vlasic in one of three changes from midweek.
