West Ham are without a key defender for this afternoon’s Premier League clash with Aston Villa. Graham Potter takes his Hammers side back to Villa Park for the second time this month, having lost in the FA Cup third-round in his first game in charge.

Potter says it is yet to be decided if Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville will be available on Sunday, stating: "Bowen has had one or two sessions and we still need to assess him. It's still early - we have another day so we'll see. It's important that we don't rush him in. It's the same with Crysencio [Summerville]."
