West Ham United seek to kick on after midweek win over Olympiacos - and Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers will again cast an eye over Hammers players for this Gameweek.
Gameweek 12 will see David Moyes' men host Nottingham Forest at London Stadium on Sunday looking for consecutive wins in all competitions.
Having battled their way to victory on Thursday, West Ham will take confidence from a 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest in this fixture last season. They seek to grab a win – and in doing so earn a few FPL points too.
Make sure you note the FPL transfer deadline, as Gameweek 12 will start on Saturday 11 November 2023 at 11am.

This week, all eyes are on Paquetá.
Lucas leading Hammers’ charge
There is no doubt that Lucas Paquetá (£6.0m) is starting to cement his place as one of the most exciting players in West Ham’s modern history.
He is skilful, creative, and started to add plenty of goal contributions to his game too, with his strike against Olympiacos on Thursday the latest of any impressive bunch.
James Ward-Prowse, to this credit, put it on a plate for the No10, who showed his quality to finish a chipped pass with ease from ten yards out.
That is good news for FPL managers, who will be tempted by Paquetá’s recent form, as he returns from a suspension that saw him miss the last Premier League outing to Brentford.
The No10, who returned 98 points last campaign, has four goals already this season and will seek to strike in consecutive matches when Nottingham Forest visit London Stadium.
He has returned six points in matches against Luton and Chelsea this season and will look to better his best Gameweek returns in a fixture the Irons by four goals last term.
Opposition Watch: Nottingham Forest
Taiwo Awoniyi (£6.4m) has impressed this season – as only ten strikers average more FPL points per game than the Forest No9.
Awoniyi scored in his first four league games of the campaign and will hope to add to the winner he scored against West Ham at the City Ground in August 2022.
Another option could be Matt Turner (£4.1m), having started the Club’s first ten matches of the season.
The goalkeeper was dropped for Forest’s last outing, however, as Steve Copper named Odysseas Vlachodimos (£4.5m).
