Neville booms a high ball into the box looking for Cahill's head, but it's a bit untidy from Everton and the home team clear up.
9'
A long spell of possession here for Everton, but Parker nicks it off Rodwell and here come West Ham... Obinna just cannot get his shot away.
8'
Everton have certainly started the better, and they are showing plenty of fluidity breaking forward from midfield.

Coleman picks out Distin wide on the left, who goes for goal.... drags his shot wide from a very tight angle!
6'
Arteta delivers into a melee of players and West Ham gets it half-clear...
5'
Rodwell darts down the right and wins a corner off Parker...
4'
Everton break promisingly down the left, but Pienaar strays offside.
3'
No early patterns emerging yet. West Ham can escape the bottom three with a win today...
2'
Great tackle by Hibbert on Obinna - Hibbert has a job on his hands today playing at centre-back.

GAME ON! Both teams are playing in their home kit - West Ham kicking from right to left as we see it.
17:25
So Carlton Cole is on the bench for West Ham despite his two goals at Fulham, while Luis Boa Morte returns after suspension. Phil Jagielka misses out injured for Everton so Tony Hibbert deputises at centre-back. No recognised striker for Everton, who will most likely play with Fellaini supporting Cahill.
17:20
Some interesting results in the 3pm kick-offs - we have new Premier League leaders, while Blackpool won again, and Fulham triumphed thanks to two wondergoals from Chris Baird. That's Chris Baird.
17:15
Everton have drawn all three matches in London this season - 1-1 at Chelsea (December 4) and Tottenham (October 23) and 0-0 at Fulham (September 25).
17:10
West Ham have lost their last four home matches against Merseyside opposition, conceding at least twice on each occasion, since a 1-0 victory against Liverpool in January 2008.
17:05
