Impact Areola missed out mid-week due to the groin injury and has just three extra days to recover before getting back in Premier League action. Lukasz Fabianski is a more than competent goalkeeper and is a perfectly serviceable replacement if Areola is unable to go Sunday.

Impact Phillips missed out against Leverkusen due to a minor hamstring injury, and is now in doubt for Sunday's clash as well. With the short turnaround it's not like Phillips had any significant amount of time to recover between the mid-week and weekend matches. Phillips' dreadful form means he might not be selected, even if deemed fit.

Konstantinos Mavropanos - Picks up issue Mavropanos is a doubt for Sunday's clash with Fulham, according to manager David Moyes. "Dinos felt something but I'm not sure if it's bad or not yet."

Impact Mavropanos came off late during Thursday's 2-0 loss to Leverkusen with an injury. It's not clear how serious the injury might be, but on such short turnaround it's possible he misses Sunday's match as a precaution. Mavropanos being out could bring Nayef Aguerd back into the starting XI.

Impact Bowen missing an extended period of time is a tremendous loss to the Hammers attack. He is the talisman who drives play, and the most reliable finisher on the team. Mohammed Kudus and Lucas Paqueta will need to step up in the coming weeks to fill the void left by Bowen.

Impact Phillips has been out of favor after some truly awful showings in West Ham, and is now dealing with an injury. It's a tough turn for the midfielder, though the hope will be that the injury is what has prompted the dreadful form. It's also possible Phillips is being dropped and this is a way for club and player to save face.

Edson Alvarez - Draws four fouls in win Alvarez had three tackles (two won), five interceptions and four fouls drawn in Saturday's 2-1 win against Wolves.

Impact Alvarez returned from his two-match suspension and had one of his better fantasy days, as he didn't even commit a foul. While he doesn't have upside as a defensive midfielder, he'll rack up defensive stats no matter the opponent. He's suspended for the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final against Leverkusen, but he's set to feature in the XI every match the rest of the way following that contest.

Jarrod Bowen - Won't be available for UEL Bowen has been ruled out for Thursday's UEL clash against Leverkusen, per Roshane Thomas of The Athletic.

Impact Bowen will not be an option after taking a blow in the club's most recent match against Wolves on Saturday, as he is now set to miss time due to a hip issue. This will leave the club without one of their top players and their starting striker, leading the club with 19 goals, with Michail Antonio being his most likely replacement up top. Bowen will now hope only to miss one match due to his stiffness in the hip region and get back into training over the coming days, looking to shake off the issue by Sunday's match against Fulham.

Lukasz Fabianski - Makes six saves in win Fabianski made six saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 2-1 win over Wolverhampton.

Impact Fabianski was beaten by Pablo Sarabia from the penalty spot just past the half-hour mark but then put up a great performance between the posts, with his six saves being a season high for him. Alphonse Areola (groin) could return and take over as the starting goalkeeper for next Sunday's clash against Fulham, but Fabiasnki just proved he'll be more than ready if there's another chance for him to play from the opening whistle.

Mohammed Kudus - Takes three shots in win Kudus had three off-target shots, sent in five inaccurate crosses and drew five fouls during Saturday's 2-1 win over Wolverhampton.

Impact Kudus was one of his team's most active players on the attacking end but this time accuracy wasn't by his side as the attacker failed to have a single shot or crosses finding the target. Kudus had a quiet start of campaign, mostly coming off the bench, but then started to deliver and became an essential member of the team, with iimportant goals on both EPL and Europa League.

Michail Antonio - Quiet off bench in win Antonio had one shot on goal after coming off the bench during Saturday's 2-1 win over Wolverhampton.

Impact Antonio was brought off the bench for the first time after four consecutive start, coming as part of a double halftime substitution, but didn't have the expected impact up front. This has been another rough campaign for the striker, who has scored just four times over 20 league appearances and struggled to leave behind a knee injury that made him miss over two months of action.

This was the first goal in more than two months for Ward-Prowse, who now has six over 31 league appearances in his first campaign with West Ham.

Lucas Paqueta - Converts PK versus Wolves Paqueta scored a penalty goal, created two chances and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 2-1 win over Wolverhampton.

That's now two goals and one assist over the last five league starts for the midfielder, who's heating up when his team needs the most.
