Team news: Moyes gives Antonio, Fredericks updates

Michail Antonio


David Moyes has given an update on the fitness of Michail Antonio and Ryan Fredericks ahead of West Ham United's trip to Leeds United on Friday night.

The Hammers head to Elland Road looking to get back on track following last weekend's defeat to Manchester United and move back inside the Premier League's top five.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, the manager revealed that Antonio is unlikely to make his way back from a hamstring problem in time for the Leeds clash, although there was better news around the fitness of Ryan Fredericks.

"It’s probably doubtful on Michail," Moyes admitted. "He’s still recovering so at this moment in time he’s more than likely doubtful for the game.

"Most of the rest of the squad are okay at the moment. We’re waiting on Ryan Fredericks - he had an injury for a day or two with a bit of a groin strain and has just come back. 

"So we’re hoping he’ll be okay as well."
