West Ham will welcome fans back to the London Stadium on Monday night following an excellent victory against Newcastle on the opening day. Manager David Moyes would have been delighted by the character of his players, who secured a 4-2 win after being 2-1 down at one stage.
They will face a Leicester team who also won their first league fixture, and the Foxes will provide a stern challenge to the home side. In terms of the teams, the Hammers only have one injury concern, with Arthur Masuaku still on the sidelines due to a knee injury.
West Ham’s Predicted XI To Take On Leicester:
Fabianski, Coufal, Dawson, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Soucek Benrahma, Rice, Bowen, Antonio, Fornals
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers will have James Maddison and Timothy Castagne back in contention for the match, but Jonny Evans (foot), Nampalys Mendy (groin), Ryan Bertrand (virus), James Justin (knee) and Wesley Fofana (broken leg) are all ruled out.
Leicester’s Predicted XI:
Schmeichel, Ricardo, Vestergaard, Soyuncu, Castagne, Tielemans, Maddison, Ndidi, Perez, Vardy, Barnes
The bookies have this one as too close to call with West Ham currently 13/8 at Sky Bet to win. A draw is 13/5 with the same bookmaker while a victory for the Foxes is 7/4 at Bet 365.
Predicted Score – 1-1
