West Ham play host to Hull City later this evening in this Premiership Fixture which can be seen Live on Sky Sports with an 8pm Kick Off.

Gianfranco Zola's side are currently one point ahead of Hull City and with home advantage will no doubt be looking to increase that gap by picking up all three points. Record signing Savio who cost the club 9 Million will be hoping to make his debut if he manages to get international clearance in time, but he may have to take a place on the bench to begin with as both Carlton Cole and David Di Michele have been in cracking form of late and it looks unlikey that Zola will change this partnership just yet.

Kieron Dyer is set to have a scan on a muscle injury but should receive the all clear and be available for selection and Matthew Upson will also return after he missed the weekend's FA Cup win over Hartlepool.

Hull City will be handing new signing Jimmy Bullard at least a place on the bench and Craig Fagan will also be available for selection after serving his suspension. Kevin Kilbane is also available after sitting out the previous game due to be cup tied. George Boateng however is still a long way from being involved as he continues to recover with an knee injury.

Summary

This should be an exciting game and after watching West Ham play very well against Fulham recently they surely look favourites to win this game. However, Hull City have proved their worth in this League so far and will be extremely tough to break down and despite their long injury list they will be confident of picking up at least a point later tonight.
