Confirmed lineups for West Ham v Arsenal match

West Ham host Arsenal in an EFL Cup Round of 16 match at the London Stadium. The match kicks off at 20.30 CET. 

This will be the first time Declan Rice will face his former club, after the Englishman joined the Gunners last summer for 105 million pounds, making it the most expensive transfer in the club's history. 

The visitors' own manager Mikel Arteta told the pre-match press conference that he expects a "beautiful" reunion between the England midfielder and the Hammers. 

David Moyes' side go into the game having managed just one win in their last five games, having lost their last three in a row. Arsenal, meanwhile, have won three of their last five games, having claimed back-to-back victories in their last two.

West Ham starting XI: Fabianski (GK); Coufal, Mavropanos, Aguerd, Emerson; Kudus, Soucek, Benrahma, Alvarez, Paqueta; Bowen.

Arsenal starting XI: Ramsdale (GK); Zinchenko, Magalhaes, Kiwior, White; Havertz, Jorginho, Vieira; Trossard, Nketiah and Nelson.
