West Ham handed big injury boosts ahead of Europa Conference League first leg vs AEK Larnaca

West Ham United have been handed a major injury boost ahead of their UEFA Europa Conference League first leg vs AEK Larnaca.

Michail Antonio (hamstring), Thilo Kehrer (illness) and Maxwel Cornet (calf) were all doubts heading into the first leg but all were spotted in training pictures released on Wednesday morning.

As was Angelo Ogbonna, who came off injured in the Hammers' 4-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday afternoon.

The aforementioned trio were also absent for the defeat at the Amex Stadium, but made a return to training as David Moyes prepares his side for the fixture in Cyprus.

West Ham made history in the group stage of the competition, winning all six of their fixtures and becoming the first team in the competition's small history to do so.

Their form in Europe is a stark contrast to their league form, with the club struggling in the bottom half of the Premier League table just one point above the relegation zone in 16th place but do have a game in hand on Everton in 18th.
