Leicester City v West Ham United: Premier League – live | Premier League

Ruud van Nistelrooy’s first Leicester starting XI sees four changes to the side sent out to face heavy defeat at Brentford. Jannik Vestergaard, Victor Kristiansen, Bilal El Khannouss and Kasey McAteer take the places of Wout Faes, Caleb Okoli, Luke Thomas and Jordan Ayew, all of whom drop to the bench. Harry Winks is still recovering from a groin problem.

Julen Lopetegui makes five changes after the 5-2 debacle against Arsenal. Back in: Vladimír Coufal, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Edson Álvarez, Danny Ings and, returning from his five-game ban for that meltdown at Spurs, Mohammed Kudus. Crysencio Summerville, Michail Antonio, Lucas Paquetá and Emerson Palmieri drop to the bench, while Jean-Clair Todibo is out injured.

Leicester City: Hermansen, Justin, Vestergaard, Coady, Kristiansen, Ndidi, Soumare, El Khannouss, Buonanotte, McAteer, Vardy.
Subs: Ward, Faes, Okoli, Thomas, Skipp, Mavididi, De Cordova-Reid, Ayew, Dhaka.

West Ham United: Fabianski, Wan-Bissaka, Mavropanos, Kilman, Coufal, Alvarez, Soucek, Soler, Kudus, Bowen, Engs.
Subs: Foderingham, Summerville, Antonio, Paqueta, Fullkrug, Guilherme, Rodriguez, Emerson, Casey.

Referee: Josh Smith

Leicester fans are full of hope thanks to their new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy; West Ham supporters are rapidly losing patience with their new guy Julen Lopetegui. Either way, though, these teams go into tonight’s fixture off the back of a skelping, Leicester losing 4-1 at Brentford last weekend, the Hammers shipping five in 45 minutes at home to Arsenal. A bounceback victory would mean so much. Kick-off is at 8.15pm GMT. It’s on!
