The fourth of today’s five Premier League matches sees West Ham United play host to Bournemouth.

Kick-off is at 17:30 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

West Ham have made one change to the starting XI they sent out in their last Premier League game.

It’s an enforced one, as Soungoutou Magassa replaces the banned Freddie Potts. He was sent off in last Saturday’s FA Cup fourth-round tie.

Bournemouth have made two changes from Gameweek 26.

Tyler Adams and Junior Kroupi are brought into the side, with Ryan Christie and Alex Toth making way.

LINE-UPS

West Ham United XI: Hermansen, Wan-Bissaka, Disasi, Mavropanos, Diouf, Magassa, Souček, Bowen, Fernandes, Summerville, Castellanos.

Subs: Areola, Walker-Peters, Kilman, Todibo, Scarles, Mayers, Kante, Wilson, Traoré.

Bournemouth XI: Petrović, Jimenez, Hill, Senesi, Truffert, Scott, Adams, Rayan, Kroupi, Adli, Evanilson.

Subs: Mandas, Smith, Diakite, Milosavljevic, Brooks, Christie, Tavernier, Toth, Ünal.

    Bowen def con is the highlight of my gameweek so far

    1. Dank Squid

      Bowen cares. Not the greatest FPL asset, but he goes beyond

    Hill 6 points - feeling content

    1. Pompel
      • 12 Years

      Yeah, making up for yet another Chalobah disappointment

    Hill fail

    1. OverTinker
      • 7 Years
      4 days, 21 hours ago

      I am ok with his 6 points considering how bad this GW gas been so far

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        4 days, 21 hours ago

        But he usually gets at least 7

  6. Sun Jihai

    4.2m Hermansen with 22 points in his 3 games since coming into the team;)

      Hill returns yet again

    • Khalico
      • 10 Years
      4 days, 21 hours ago

      Would you rather have Stach or KDH as the 5th mid?

      3 matches in a row senesi not got dc points. do you think there's a reason for this or just is what it is, he'll get them soon enough again

      1. Bigbars

        makes sense if Hill is getting the lions share of the clearances, senesi may have got to previously..
        Although the stats may show otherwise, it is still luck whether they come on his side or not.

        1. F4L
          • 11 Years
          4 days, 21 hours ago

          makes sense, cheers

      Van Hecke and Senesi on my bench. Played the useless Enzo and Rogers. FML

      Should've went for Bournemouths "Anderson", A.Scott. Went for the more exciting pick, Rayan.

    • Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      Team GBR Curling are on their game

    • DBry
        4 days, 21 hours ago

        Anderson, KDH, Gravenberch?

        8th mid/fwd

        KDH can’t see starting many
        Grav does have decent matches and similar output to Anderson
