Last week, West Ham won the Europa League game against Rapid Wien (2:0) and secured the top line in Group H. The Premier League campaign of the Hammers has also been successful: they are currently 4th in the standings with 23 points.
David Moyes' men recorded 7 victories and 2 matches ended in draws. After beating Liverpool (3:2), the Hammers suffered two consecutive defeats to Wolverhampton (0:1) and Manchester City (1:2).
The only injury concern for West Ham is Ogbonna.
Brighton celebrated success over Cardiff and Swansea in the first rounds of the League Cup, but couldn't get past Leicester in the Round of 16. Graham Potter's charges had a powerful start to the Premier League, but lost focus in recent fixtures and dropped out of the Top-6.
