Goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski and forward Michail Antonio could both return to the West Ham starting line-up against Southampton. Both men are being assessed ahead of the game.

Moyes will also assess the fitness of defender Nayef Aguerd, who returned from international duty with a "grumbly hip", and striker Gianluca Scamacca who has a knee injury.

Southampton, on the other hand, could have Che Adams and Mohamed Salisu back in the fold.

However, Valentino Livramento, Juan Larios, Armel Bella-Kotchap remain on the sidelines.

The race to avoid relegation will have a lot more twists and turns before the end of the campaign. Nevertheless, this weekend's clash between West Ham and Southampton is the biggest game at the foot of the table so far this season.

Saints boss Ruben Selles has overseen a recent resurgence at St Mary's even though his men are still bottom of the Premier League standings.

Southampton have claimed eight points from the last six outings - including draws with Tottenham and Manchester United.

The 3-3 draw with Spurs is particularly noteworthy as the hosts showed incredible resilience to come back from 3-1 down in the final 13 minutes of the match. That type of fight will be necessary if Saints are to bag their seventh win of the season.

West Ham are arguably the most inconsistent team in the league, but when they're at their best, they can be hard to stop.

Two of their last three wins have been 4-0s, while their last seven victories have all come to nil.

However, such results are few and far between as the Irons continually fail to string together a run of positive results.

Moyes' men haven't won back-to-back Premier League games since October and they enter the weekend having picked up five points from their last five matches in the competition.

Three of the previous five meetings between West Ham and Southampton ended in draws - two of them goalless.

There's little to separate both teams ahead of the weekend and our tip is to back another stalemate.

Draw and both teams to score, or the 2-2 scoreline in the correct score market should both provide plenty of value.
