West Ham boss Alan Curbishley will hand Lucas Neill a late fitness test for the visit of Liverpool after the full-back injured his ankle on debut on Saturday.
Carlos Tevez is also struggling with a calf injury, but Marlon Harewood (ban) and Calum Davenport (cup-tied) return.
Liverpool could have Mohamed Sissoko (shoulder) and Bolo Zenden (ankle) back for the trip to Upton Park.
Otherwise, apart from Luis Garcia and Harry Kewell, the Reds have a virtually injury-free squad ahead of the match.
