Training with squad Antonio (calf) was pictured in training in the lead-up to Sunday's clash with Southampton.

Out for ECL match Antonio will miss Thursday's Europa Conference League clash against AEK Larnaca due to a calf injury he suffered in the first leg last week, West Ham manager David Moyes confirmed...
Impact Antonio returned from a hamstring injury to start and score two goals in last week's Conference League Round of 16 first leg win against Larnaca, but he also picked up a new calf injury that sidelined him for last weekend's domestic draw with Aston Villa and has ruled him out for the ECL return leg now as well. Moyes said in his press conference Wednesday that he "couldn't tell you when I expect [him] to return as I'm not sure yet," but Thursday's game is West Ham's last one until April due to the upcoming international break. Gianluca Scamacca is expected to start the European match up front, but Danny Ings is more likely to take over in league play.

Impact Antonio returned to the starting XI for Thursday's Conference League clash with Larnaca and immediately put together a pair of goals. It's a tough look for Antonio, who already entered the match with a hamstring tweak. Given this occurrence and that both Danny Ings and Gianluca Scamacca are healthy, Antonio is unlikely to start Sunday.

Impact This is good news for Antonio, who will join the team for their clash with Aston Vila. He has new competition for a starting spot with Danny Ings arriving from Aston Villa midseason. As it stands, Antonio is still the primary forward, but will need to begin to get on the scoresheet more often if he wants to keep his starting role.

Bench option versus Leeds Antonio (illness) will be on the bench against Leeds United on Wednesday.
Impact Antonio has featured just once in the team's last 10 contests, so his absence from the starting XI shouldn't come as a surprise. Unless he can get onto the pitch with more consistency, Antonio shouldn't be expected to offer more than low-end fantasy value.

Dealing with illness Antonio "has a bit of an illness" ahead of Wednesday's trip to Leeds, according to manager David Moyes.
Impact Antonio isn't expected to start Wednesday with Gianluca Scamacca again an option up front. While Antonio had some moments of brilliance early last season, he's failed to replicate that form since and his role for the Hammers is slowly fading unless he can start scoring. At this point, when healthy, Scamacca is the No. 1 striker for West Ham.

Starting Boxing Day Antonio (calf) is in the starting XI for Sunday's clash with Arsenal.

Doubt with calf issue Antonio (calf) is dealing with a strain and although coach David Moyes is "hoping they have a chance, they are doubtful" for Monday's league matchup with Arsenal.
Impact This is tough news for West Ham supporters, as fellow attacker Gianluca Scamacca might also be sidelined with an ankle knock sustained during a friendly last weekend. In their absences, look for Jarrod Bowen to temporarily lead the line for the Hammers. Moyes added Friday, "Jarrod is more than capable of playing down the middle," so that appears to be the plan for now.

Should be option at Saints Antonio (cold) "is a little better" ahead of Sunday's match against Southampton, according to manager David Moyes.
Impact Moyes either reveals no information or all of the information and Antonio apparently has a terrible cold, which forced him to miss Thursday's UECL match. It'd be a surprise if he wasn't in the squad Sunday, but either way, Gianluca Scamacca is expected to remain in the starting XI at Southampton.

Out Thursday Antonio (cold) is not in the first team squad for Thursday's clash with Anderlecht.
Impact Antonio picked up a cold earlier in the week putting his status in doubt Thursday and evidently he wasn't able to recover in time. Jarrod Bowen and Lucas Paqueta start in the attack in his place. Antonio has a good chance of returning for Sunday's trip to Southampton, though it's possible he could be a bench option to allow him to rest further behind Gianluca Scamacca.

Status uncertain due to illness Antonio "has a wee bit of a cold, which has kept him out of training for a day or two. So we're a little unsure on him," manager David Moyes told reporters ahead of Thursday's UECL...
Impact Antonio should be available by Sunday's trip to Southampton but missing training usually means it will be difficult to play. With two goals in his last four matches but two appearances off the bench in a row, Antonio is in decent form but has a heavy competition with Gianluca Scamacca for starts.
