David Moyes has made three changes to the West Ham United starting 11 that will face Everton at London Stadium this afternoon, with Jarrod Bowen, Pablo Fornals and Ryan Fredericks comingin into the side that lost 3-1 away to Tottenham Hotspur before the international break.
England Under-21 Ben Johnson, left wing back Arthur Masuaku and attacker Manuel Lanzini have all dropped out, while Vladimir Coufal is fit enough to take a place on the bench.
Bowen had been expected to be among the substitutes having been absent through injury for close to a month but his return will be a massive boost for the Hammers as they seek to make certain of Europa League qualification.
Lanzini is not even on the substitutes' bench having been left shaken and sore when a car he was travelling in, as a passenger, crashed on the A12 when on route to training Thursday.

Everton, who have won only seven times all season and possess the division's worst away record, arrive in East London only three points above relegation but do have three games in hand over 18th-placed Watford and one over Burnley, who are a point further behind.
While West Ham won 1-0 at Goodison Park in October, thanks to Angelo Ogbonna's 74th-minute goal, they have beaten Everton just once at home in the league since 2007.
Moyes will, however, be wary of his players being distracted by Thursday night's Europa League quarter-final first leg against Lyon.
West Ham United: Lukasz Fabianski; Ryan Fredericks, Craig Dawson, Kurt Zouma, Aaron Cresswell; Declan Rice, Tomas Soucek; Pablo Fornals, Said Benrahma, Jarrod Bowen; Michail Antonio.
Substitutes: Alphonse Areola, Aji Alese, Issa Diop, Vladimir Coufal, Arthur Masuaku, Mark Noble, Alex Kral, Andriy Yarmolenko, Nicola Vlasic.
