West Ham United boss David Moyes admits he does not know whether centre-backs Kurt Zouma or Craig Dawson will be fit enough to feature against Liverpool on Wednesday.
Both men missed the Hammers' 1-1 draw away at Southampton on Sunday due to illness and a dead leg injury respectively, forcing Moyes to play a back three of Ben Johnson, Thilo Kehrer and Aaron Cresswell.
Zouma’s illness kept him out of the midweek win over Anderlecht in the Europa Conference League, as well as the trip to Hampshire, while Dawson’s leg issue flared up again in that match, forcing him off, having first suffered it in the win over Fulham a week ago.

Speaking on the duo, Moyes has said that the absences of those two, and Nayef Aguerd’s long-term ankle injury has really affected the Hammers and the way they want to play.
“One’s got an injury and one’s got an illness so we’ve had to go without them,” said Moyes. “Obviously, we’ve got no Nayef Aguerd at the moment so we were rocked terribly from an injury in midweek. It’s really set us back from how we want to play.
“No idea. No idea,” Moyes added when asked if they could feature at Liverpool on Sunday.
