West Ham United boss David Moyes has named his side to face Tottenham Hotspur at the London Stadium.
The Hammers will look to pick up their first home win of the season in the Premier League when they take on Antonio Conte’s side, who have picked up ten points from their opening four Premier League games of the season.
As the Irons look to build on Sunday’s 1-0 win away at Aston Villa, Moyes has made three changes to face Spurs from the side that were victorious in the West Midlands.

Having started the win over Steven Gerrard’s side with a five at the back formation, Moyes has ditched that shape, returning to a 4-2-3-1. Vladimir Coufal replaces Ben Johnson at right-back, with Johnson coming off in the first half of the win over Villa. Aaron Cresswell returns to left-back, with Kurt Zouma and Thilo Kehrer starting at centre-back in front of Lukasz Fabianski in goal.
Said Benrahma is back in attacking midfield, playing alongside Jarrod Bowen and Pablo Fornals in the attacking trio in front of Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek, who keep their places in the two deeper midfield roles.
Up front, Michail Antonio returns to lead the line, with Gianluca Scamacca missing from the squad just three days after making his full Premier League debut. Scamacca is sidelined with a virus, while Ben Johnson is out with the injury that forced him off against Villa.
Star signing Lucas Paqueta, who joined for a big money move that could eventually rise to more than £50million after add-ons, is on the bench, despite only completing a move to the London Stadium from Lyon on Monday night. Centre-back Nayef Aguerd (ankle) remains sidelined until mid-October, while Craig Dawson is also not in the squad amid links with transfer interest from Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Meanwhile, Spurs boss Antonio Conte has made one change from the side that won 2-0 against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday.
