West Ham United vs. Fulham - prediction, lineups and free online broadcast

As West Ham United prepares to face Fulham in the Premier League, the match holds significant implications for both teams amid their current league standings and player injuries. West Ham, currently sitting at 14th place, is navigating a challenging period with key players such as Michail Antonio and Jarrod Bowen sidelined due to injuries . In contrast, Fulham occupies a more secure position at 9th place and has shown resilience by remaining unbeaten in their last eight matches . This disparity in form suggests that Fulham may enter the match with greater confidence.

The Englishman has plenty of work to do with a squad which perhaps isn't ideal for his framework given the lack of legs in midfield and injuries up top.

West Ham enter Tuesday's game 14th in the table having won just six of their 20 league outings under Lopetegui.

Unlike the Hammers, Fulham progressed into the fourth round of the FA Cup by virtue of a 4-1 win over Watford on Thursday night. The Cottagers are currently nine games unbeaten in all competitions, but their tendency to draw means they're only ninth in the Premier League table.

Jean-Clair Todibo missed the game after suffering an injury against Manchester City earlier this month, while Lukasz Fabianski could return after going through concussion protocols.

Fulham will assess Rodrigo Muniz after he came off at half-time against Watford but hope to welcome back Sander Berge. Reiss Nelson and Kenny Tete will not make the game.

West Ham United possible starting lineup: Fabianski; Coufal, Mavropanos, Kilman, Wan-Bissaka; Alvarez, Soler; Kudus, Soucek, Paqueta; Ings

Fulham possible starting lineup: Leno; Diop, Andersen, Bassey; Castagne, Lukic, Cairney, Robinson; Wilson, Jimenez, Iwobi

Jean-Clair Todibo, Emerson, Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio are all sidelined, while Crysencio Summerville is a doubt, having been taken off at half time on Friday night. In a further blow, Niclas Füllkrug pulled his hamstring inside a quarter of an hour against Aston Villa, leaving Danny Ings as the only available centre-forward. Graham Potter went strong for the FA Cup tie, with teenaged left-back Oliver Scarles the only surprise inclusion, deputising for Emerson, so will he continue to get the nod, with right-footed Vladimír Coufal and out-of-favour Aaron Cresswell the alternatives? In goal, Łukasz Fabiański featured for the first time since suffering a nasty concussion on Boxing Day, expected to be chosen over Alphonse Areola once again.
