Team News: Andy Carroll starts for West Ham United

Andy Carroll has been handed another start as West Ham United host Hull City this afternoon.

Slaven Bilic has decided to include the striker in the XI once more following his return from a lengthy layoff to start midweek's victory over Burnley, meaning an unchanged starting lineup from that match.

The visiting Tigers, meanwhile, display one change to the side that fell 3-0 to Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday as Dieumerci Mbokani returns to the squad following a three-match ban.

Mbokani's inclusion shunts Adama Diomande to the bench as Hull aim to arrest a six-game losing streak in the league away to today's opposition.

West Ham United: Randolph, Kouyate, Reid, Ogbonna, Antonio, Noble, Obiang, Cresswell, Lanzini, Payet, Carroll Subs: Nordtveit, Feghouli, Adrian, Ayew, Fletcher, Fernandes, Quina

Hull City: Marshall, Maguire, Dawson, Davies, Elmohamady, Livermore, Huddlestone, Clucas, Robertson, Snodgrass, Mbokani Subs: Meyler, Maloney, Jakupovic, Weir, Diomande, Henriksen, Bowen
