Andy Carroll’s place in the team may come under scrutiny as he faces a suspension for this game due to his 2 rapid fire yellow cards in Saturday's game vs Burnley. Javier Hernandez, however, is a more than capable replacement for this game.

These teams sit in 14th (BHA) and 15th (WHU) places, respectively, only separated by goal difference. After 8 games of this year’s PL season, both the Hammers and the Seagulls have won 2, drew 2, and lost 4 games.

The 33-year-old's contract expires at the end of 2017 but reportedly contains an option for a year-long extension.
