Sports Mole previews Tuesday's Premier League clash between West Ham United and Norwich City at Upton Park.

West Ham United will attempt to return to winning ways then they welcome a struggling Norwich City outfit to Upton Park on Tuesday.

The Hammers' defeat against Reading last time out was their third loss in their last five matches in the Premier League, a run of form that has left them in 12th spot in the table.

Norwich, meanwhile, have lost four of their last five matches in all competitions, but their last two defeats came against Chelsea and Manchester City.

The last time the two sides met was at Carrow Road in September and the points were shared in a goalless draw.

West Ham could name the same side that started against Reading last time out, but Jack Collison is pushing for a start after an impressive cameo against the Royals.

Norwich, meanwhile, could have Grant Holt back from injury, meaning that Steve Morison will drop out of the starting side.

Recent form:

West Ham: WLDLL

Norwich: LWLLL

Possible lineups:

West Ham: Jaaskelainen; Reid, Tomkins, Collins, O'Brien; Nolan, Noble, O'Neil; Taylor, Cole, Jarvis

Norwich: Bunn; Martin, Bassong, Turner, Garrido; Johnson, Snodgrass, Pilkington, Tetty, Hoolahan; Holt

Sports Mole says: 1-1
