West Ham Starting XI vs Everton: Confirmed Team News and Predicted Lineup

West Ham Face Tough Everton Test as Lucas Paquetá Eyes Return​

Graham Potter’s Challenge in Merseyside​

Graham Potter’s Hammers sit 16th in the Premier League table, level on points with Everton. A win could lift them as high as 13th, momentarily leapfrogging both Manchester United and Tottenham. However, standing in their way is a resurgent Everton side, revitalised under a familiar figure in the dugout.

West Ham fans may have mixed emotions as they face their former manager, who has transformed the Toffees into a disciplined, high-energy outfit. His impact has been profound, with Goodison Park once again a fortress under his guidance.​

Injury Concerns and Selection Dilemmas​

Alongside Paquetá, Evan Ferguson is another attacking option as Potter looks to sharpen his side’s edge. Meanwhile, Vladimir Coufal is back in contention following an injury layoff.

However, Crysencio Summerville remains unavailable until after the international break, while Michail Antonio and Niclas Füllkrug are sidelined long-term. Füllkrug has resumed training, but it’s unlikely West Ham will rush him back into action.​

Predicted Line-up and Kick-off Details​

West Ham Predicted XI: Areola; Todibo, Kilman, Cresswell; Wan-Bissaka, Soucek, Ward-Prowse, Paquetá, Scales, Bowen, Ferguson.
