James Tomkins is working hard to be fit for Sunday's showdown with Leeds United at the Boleyn Ground.
The homegrown Hammer revealed he came off against Watford in midweek as a precaution, having put the team on their way to a 4-0 win with a headed goal on three minutes.
"I should be all right for the weekend," he told West Ham TV. "[The hamstring] was a bit tight. I couldn't really run. There was a lot of jumping and a lot of running but I should be fit."
Like the rest of his team-mates, he was in the morning after the night before for a warm-down and light fitness work. The players will get an extra rest on Thursday before they go again with full training on Friday and Saturday.
Should he lineup for the Leeds game, Tomkins will be looking to get on the scoresheet again, believing he should see the reward this season for an extra focus in training on the attacking side of his game.
"That is what I have to keep working on and practising. I am just glad it went in. I feel confident I can win a lot of headers in the air. Hopefully the goal will give me the confidence that I can go on and score from corners and any set-piece we have, and pose a threat."
He paid tribute to the "great left foot" of Matt Taylor, who has shown tremendous delivery from all areas since his arrival, while said the two back-to-back wins had demonstrated that "we are up for the fight". Tomkins added: "It was good to get the victory and we really feel we can push on."
