West Ham manager Slaven Bilic has confirmed he is unlikely to risk winger Michail Antonio in the Carabao Cup tie at Sky Bet League two side Cheltenham tomorrow night.
Antonio underwent a hamstring operation over the summer and made his first start in the Premier League match at Southampton before going off in the second half. Forward Marko Arnautovic is suspended after his red card on Saturday.
Defender Winston Reid (calf) continues to be assessed, while midfielder Manuel Lanzini is back in training after his knee problem, as are striker Andy Carroll (thigh) and Cheikhou Kouyate (knee).
Provisional squad: Adrian, Byram, Masuaku, Reid, Collins, Obiang, Fernandes, Snodgrass, Rice, Sakho, Ayew, Hart, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Zabaleta, Fonte, Noble, Hernandez.
