Overview
- West Ham will assess Freddie Potts, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Niclas Fullkrug in Friday's session before naming the squad for the Vitality Stadium trip.
- Lucas Paqueta will miss the match through suspension after receiving his fifth yellow card of the season.
- Nuno said Paqueta is impossible to replace and urged his side to find solutions during the playmaker's absence.
- Fullkrug has sat out four matches with a thigh issue and, despite January links, the manager insisted the striker remains part of his plans.
- George Earthy has returned to first-team training and Mateus Fernandes is back with the group, with Earthy expected to build fitness before being considered.
