West Ham United will begin life under new manager Nuno Espírito Santo on Monday night with a trip to face David Moyes’ Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
The Hammers dramatically sacked Graham Potter on Saturday, with Nuno taking charge of a side sitting 19th in the table. They face an Everton team that is yet to concede a goal at their new home ground this season, setting up a fascinating first test for the new boss.

Team News
Everton
David Moyes has a near full-strength squad for the visit of his former club. Jarrad Branthwaite and Merlin Röhl are the only notable absentees. Key creator Jack Grealish is expected to return to the starting lineup after being rested for the midweek cup defeat.
West Ham United
New manager Nuno Espírito Santo will be without the suspended Tomáš Souček and the unavailable Aaron Wan-Bissaka for his first match. He has had just two training sessions with the squad. Striker Callum Wilson, who has eight goals in his last seven league games against Everton, is set to lead the attack.
Form
Everton
The Toffees have lost momentum recently, with back-to-back defeats against Liverpool and Wolves. However, their home form has been a fortress. They have not conceded a goal at their new stadium and are looking to become only the third club to keep clean sheets in their first three home Premier League games at a new ground.
West Ham United
The Hammers are in crisis, sitting 19th in the table, a position which prompted the sacking of Graham Potter. They have the worst defensive record in the Premier League, having conceded 13 goals in five games, seven of which have come from corners. The new manager’s immediate task is to shore up a leaky backline.
Predicted Lineups
Everton predicted XI: Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish; Beto.
West Ham United predicted XI: Areola; Walker-Peters, Mavropanos, Kilman, Diouf; Magassa, Fernandes; Bowen, Paquetá, Summerville; Wilson.
