David Moyes has offered an update on Michail Antonio and Kurt Zouma ahead of West Ham United's trip to face Tottenham Hotspur.
A busy December schedule continuees with a second consecutive London derby for the Hammers, who make the short trip north to take on Spurs in Premier League action on Thursday evening.
While the Irons welcomed back Jarrod Bowen for the last match, against Crystal Palace on Sunday, West Ham were without another attacker in Michail Antonio as the 33-year-old continues his recovery from an injury sustained on international duty with Jamaica.
Manager Moyes has confirmed that Thursday's trip to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will come too soon for Antonio to be involved, but offered a more positive update on captain Zouma.
The Frenchman missed out on the 1-1 draw with Palace after his home was burgled on Saturday, with West Ham United offering a £25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and successful prosecution of the involved individuals.
Moyes says Zouma will be back in the squad for Thursday's match against Tottenham.
Speaking to his pre-match press conference: "There’s no [Michail] Antonio. He’s not back yet. But Kurt Zouma, he’s back and available for selection. He’s been training and we’re happy to have him back.
"Kurt has been fine. He’s been back in and it’s been a terrible situation for him. The Club are supporting him really well, as our captain, and we’re fully behind him. I don’t think anybody would ever like that to happen to themselves. Hopefully they can catch the people behind it. The Club have put a reward up and I hope that helps to get the people responsible arrested."
