West Ham XI vs Everton: Confirmed team news, starting lineup, latest injuries for Carabao Cup

West Ham's switch to a back three saw them rectify their dire start to the Premier League season with a thumping win over Wolves.

The Hammers now face one the league's in-form sides when they travel to Everton in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup tonight.

Manager David Moyes remains absent in self-isolation for his return to Goodison Park having tested positive for coronavirus a week ago. The Scot will again be in regular communication with the West Ham staff on the bench and will pick the team.

Moyes has made a number of changes in their previous League Cup wins against Charlton and Hull City, but with Josh Cullen and Issa Diop still isolating and Ryan Fredericks injured, things look a little more similar at the back from Sunday's win over Wolves.

At the front, Andriy Yarmolenko and Sebastien Haller have impressed against lower league opposition without getting a chance in the first team. A performance against Everton may change that.

West Ham XI: Johnson, Balbuena, Rice, Cresswell, Noble, Snodgrass, Lanzini, Anderson, Yarmolenko, Haller

Subs: Trott, Ogbonna, Masuaku, Ashby, Soucek, Bowen, Fornals

Everton XI: Pickford, Kenny, Keane, Digne, Nkounkou, Allan, Delph, Sigurdsson, James, Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin

Subs: Lossl, Mina, Coleman, Doucoure, Davies, Bernard, Iwobi
