Team News: Hammers unchanged from Man Utd, Lanzini on the bench

Aaron Cresswell


Manuel Pellegrini names an unchanged side from the XI which defeated Manchester United a week ago to take on AFC Bournemouth.

The Hammers travel to the Vitality Stadium looking to extend a five-game unbeaten Premier League run and wipe out the memories of their midweek Carabao Cup loss to Oxford United.

Only Issa Diop and Pablo Fornals start from that side, with the likes of Sebastien Haller, Felipe Anderson, Mark Noble and Declan Rice all returning.

Aaron Cresswell keeps his place at left-back after scoring in that victory over the Red Devils, while the other goalscorer Andriy Yarmolenko joins Felipe Anderson and Fornals in supporting Haller up front.

Manuel Lanzini returns to the squad after missing out last week with a foot injury, giving the boss another attacking option from the bench.

West Ham United: Fabianski, Fredericks, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Rice, Noble (c), Yarmolenko, Fornals, Felipe Anderson, Haller
Subs: Roberto, Zabaleta, Balbuena, Wilshere, Snodgrass, Lanzini, Ajeti

AFC Bournemouth: Ramsdale, Stacey, S. Cook (c), Ake, Rico, Lerma, Billing, H. Wilson, King, Solanke, C. Wilson
Subs: Boruc, Francis, Mepham, Danjuma, Surman, L. Cook, Ibe
