West Ham United vs AFC Bournemouth - Hernandez set for Hammers return

Forward Javier Hernandez is set to be available for West Ham’s Premier League clash against Bournemouth at the London Stadium.

Hernandez, who missed Tuesday’s FA Cup replay win over Shrewsbury, has recovered from flu.

Manager David Moyes will take a late decision on the fitness of Andre Ayew, who is battling a hamstring issue, but Andy Carroll (ankle), Michail Antonio (groin), Jose Fonte (calf), Edimilson Fernandes (ankle) and Winston Reid (groin) are all out.

Josh King and Junior Stanislas are pushing hard to be fit for Bournemouth’s trip to the capital.

Both forwards are continuing to battle hamstring complaints, and will be assessed late on ahead of the encounter.

Manager Eddie Howe will restore his other front-line stars for the game, following the midweek 3-0 FA Cup third-round replay loss at Wigan.
