West Ham will make a late decision on French striker Frederic Kanoute for tomorrow’s visit to Leicester.
He was withdrawn from last week’s 1-1 draw with Arsenal at half-time with a thigh strain after scoring on his return from a hamstring injury and teenager Jermain Defoe is standing by for another chance in the starting line-up.
Goalkeeper David James missed training on Thursday with a heavy cold but manager Glenn Roeder’s is confident that he will be fit to play.
Team (from): James, Schemmel, Repka, Dailly, Winterburn, Hutchison, Sinclair, Cole, Carrick, di Canio, Defoe, Kanoute, Hislop, Minto, Potts, Foxe, Courtois, Camara.
