Ghana ace Andre Ayew is set to start for West Ham United when they play Tottenham in the Carabao Cup fourth round tonight.
Ayew has been unable to find his feet since recovering from a knee injury that ruled him out of most parts of last season.
The Ghana deputy captain has made bit-part appearances for the Hammers since the start of the season and he is now regaining the form that saw West Ham sign him from Swansea City two seasons ago.
He is among several changes under-pressure boss Slaven Bilic is likely to make for tonight's match.
West Ham goalkeeper Adrian, who has played in the last two rounds of the competition, will replace Joe Hart.
Striker Andy Carroll is also set to return after serving a one-match ban.
West Ham have only won once in five Premier League games and are 16th in the league, but under-pressure boss Slaven Bilic is not concerned about speculation concerning his job.
He said: "We have to stay focused. I have to lead the group and get us playing better. I have said a few times to the press, all that I am focused on is my next game."
Midfielder Michail Antonio could miss out after he suffered a rib injury during the 3-0 defeat by Brighton on Friday, while defender James Collins and striker Diafra Sakho only returned to training this week.
Tottenham beat West Ham 3-2 at the London Stadium in September and both clubs were fined £20,000 for failing to control their players after a late melee.
