West Ham United have confirmed their starting side and substitutes to roll out the red carpet for League One outfit Doncaster Rovers in the fourth round of the FA Cup this afternoon.

 

The Hammers are enjoying a promising season in the Premier League and boss David Moyes will be keen for the feel-good factor to be kept going with progress in the FA Cup.

 

 

They face a Doncaster side sitting in fourth spot in the League One standings and without midfielder AJ Greaves, who is cup-tied.

 

Hammers boss Moyes cannot call upon young striker Mipo Odubeko, as he has tested positive.

 

 

For today’s cup tie, Moyes picks Lukasz Fabianski in goal, while for the central defensive pairing Fabian Balbuena partners Issa Diop.

 

In midfield, Mark Noble skippers the side, while Tomas Soucek also starts. Pablo Fornals, Manuel Lanzini and Said Benrahma support Andriy Yarmolenko.

 

The West Ham boss has options on the bench if he wants to make changes, including Michail Antonio and Declan Rice.
