There are no fresh injury worries from the week's hard training, and Glenn Roeder says:
"We are positive, the players are positive, and I hope the fans are positive to us on Saturday - we want them to be.
"If we play like we can play, and get the fans on our side, they can be a big factor at Upton Park.
"When our fans are driving us on it does give the lads a lift and I hope they can do that on Saturday, but it also our responsibility to give them something to cheer - and hopefully we will.
"We have a little more strength in depth than last year and that makes it all the more frustrating that we have only picked up one point after five games."
