West Ham United boss David Moyes has named his side to face Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The Hammers will look to return to winning ways in the Premier League and move clear of the Premier League’s relegation zone, currently sitting 15th and only clear of the bottom three via goal difference.
As the Irons look to avoid defeat against their London rivals, Moyes has made five changes to face the Cottagers from the side that were beaten 5-1 by Newcastle United on Wednesday night.

In a change to what appears to be a 4-4-2 formation, Lukasz Fabianski keeps his place in goal. Just Kurt Zouma keeps his place at the back, with Vladimir Coufal, Angelo Ogbonna and Aaron Cresswell all coming in to the back four.
Tomas Soucek partners Declan Rice in midfield, with Jarrod Bowen starting on the right and Pablo Fornals starting on the left.
Danny Ings also comes back in the side, partnering Michail Antonio up front. Thilo Kehrer, Emerson, Said Benrahma and Nayef Aguerd all drop to the bench, while midfielder Lucas Paqueta is not in the matchday squad due to a knock.
Italian striker Gianluca Scamacca remains sidelined with a knee injury which has kept him out of the last two games.
