Michail Antonio is back in the West Ham starting lineup for tonight’s trip to Burnley.

There were fears that Antonio would miss the majority of West Ham’s run in, leaving Moyes without a senior striker, but the 31-year-old’s recovery has gone better than hoped. Jarrod Bowen drops out.

Declan Rice, meanwhile, suffered a knee injury on international duty in March and is also making good progress, though misses out tonight.
