Latest West Ham vs Man City team news
West Ham manager Julen Lopetegui has confirmed that left-back Aaron Cresswell is suffering from a hamstring injury and needs to be examined to assess its severity.
Edson Alvarez could return to the starting lineup after recovering from a hamstring injury sustained at the Copa America, while Soucek, Guido Rodriguez, and James Ward-Prowse are also vying for places in midfield. Aaron Wan-Bissaka could move to right-back when Emerson Palmieri returns, alongside Kudus, Lucas Paqueta, and possibly Michail Antonio to replace Niclas Fullkrug in attack.
On Manchester City's side, Oscar Bobb will be out for several months with a broken leg, and Rodri's fitness remains uncertain despite returning to training. Phil Foden is expected to recover in time for Saturday's match, and Mateo Kovacic is also likely to return from injury.
Kyle Walker and John Stones are trying to secure a starting spot, but Guardiola could continue to use a defensive quartet of Rico Lewis, Manuel Akanji, Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol, with Savinho and Jeremy Doku potentially holding places ahead of Jack Grealish.
