Team News: Marko Arnautovic returns for West Ham United against Watford

Marko Arnautovic returns from injury to start as West Ham United host Watford this afternoon.

The forward's inclusion marks one of two changes from the 3-1 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion a week ago as David Moyes also introduces Michail Antonio in the middle of the park.

Sam Byram and Declan Rice are the men to miss out, both dropping to a substitutes' bench shared with new signing Patrice Evra.

The Hornets, meanwhile, field an unchanged lineup from the side that beat an ailing Chelsea side 4-1 last weekend.

Orestis Karnezis once more stands in for injured Heurelho Gomes in goal as Javi Gracia finds himself with an injury-hit squad and little room to tinker.

West Ham United: Adrian; Cresswell, Collins, Ogbonna, Zabaleta; Noble, Kouyate; Mario, Antonio, Arnautovic; Hernandez Subs: Hart, Fonte, Hugill, Byram, Evra, Cullen, Rice

Watford: Karnezis; Mariappa, Prodl, Holebas; Janmaat, Doucoure, Capoue, Zeegelaar; Deulofeu, Deeney, Richarlison Subs: Bachmann, Mukena, Ndong, Pereyra, Lukebakio, Carrillo, Gray
