Liverpool will be without striker Fernando Torres, while Gianfranco Zola's West Ham Scott Parker is suspended.
Parker misses this match as he is in the process of completing a two match ban. His place will be taken by Radoslav Kovac.
Upfront, Carlton Cole is likely to be partnered by Brazilian striker Ilan after some impressive recent performances. However, fellow striker Mido is back in contention after illness.
Still missing for West Ham United are Kieron Dyer, Herita Ilunga, Jack Collison and James Tomkins, who has an ankle injury.
Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez is likely to replace Fernando Torres, who is out for the rest of the season, with David Ngog.
In the continued absence of Fabio Aurelio and Emiliano Insua, Daniel Agger will continue to deputise at left back.
In midfield, Alberto Aquilani is expected to start, although Maxi Rodriquez is also pushing for a start for Rafa Benitez' side.
