West Ham boss David Moyes relying on £15m transfer ahead of Nottingham Forest clash

West Ham boss David Moyes will be relying on Danny Ings to lift some pressure, when they face Nottingham Forest this weekend.

Forest will make the trip to the London Stadium ahead of Saturday's 3pm kick-off. While confidence may be high for Steve Cooper's side, it is the complete opposite in the capital.

Moyes is under significant pressure, with his side sitting 18th place after just five wins. The Hammers have struggled in front of goal this campaign, with former Reds' man Michail Antonio netting just two goals in 21 outings.

With Ings in line to make his first start for the side, Moyes will be hopeful that his experience will pay off. Ings who made the £15million switch from Aston Villa in the January transfer window, has been declared fit enough to start following a minor knee injury.

Forest's visit to the London Stadium is being described as a must-win for Moyes and co. It is claimed that former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez is on standby should Moyes get the sack.
