Preview: West Ham United vs. Norwich City

West Ham United host Norwich City in the Premier League on Tuesday with the two sides looking for points near the bottom of the table.

Both West Ham and Norwich head into the match just two points clear of the relegation zone.

However, the Hammers are currently in the better vein of form thanks to two consecutive victories. Meanwhile, Norwich are on a winless run of three matches.

Joey O'Brien remains injured for the hosts, while Andy Carroll misses out through suspension. Joe Cole and Mohamed Diame are expected to be fit.

Robert Snodgrass faces a late fitness test for the away team, who are likely to have Gary Hooper available after a foot problem.
