Payet it almost ready for a return. Picture: Action Images
Slaven Bilic is expected to continue resting Dimitri Payet for West Ham's Europa League play-off second leg against Romanian champions Astra Giurgiu on Thursday evening.
The France midfielder is almost match-fit but is unlikely to be risked, although Bilic said either he or Manuel Lanzini (knee) may be on the bench with the tie finely poised at 1-1.
Andy Carroll and Aaron Cresswell (both knee), Andre Ayew (thigh), Diafra Sakho (back) and Sofiane Feghouli (hamstring) are all missing.
Provisional squad: Adrian, Randolph, Byram, Masuaku, Collins, Reid, Ogbonna, Oxford, Antonio, Nordtveit, Kouyate, Obiang, Noble, Payet, Lanzini, Tore, Valencia, Fletcher, Calleri.
