Team News: Kevin Nolan returns for West Ham United

The midfielder has replaced winger Matt Jarvis in the only change from the side that defeated Everton on penalties in the FA Cup on Tuesday evening.

As for the visiting Tigers, manager Steve Bruce has made three alterations, two of which are enforced because of injuries to strikers Abel Hernandez and Nikica Jelavic.

West Ham: Adrian; Jenkinson, Collins, Tomkins, Cresswell; Song, Noble, Nolan, Downing; Carroll, Valencia
