Hello and welcome to live coverage of West Ham United v Huddersfield Town.

A smart lurn by Antonio on the right wing gives him time to cross, and then to earn a corner. Cresswell takes, and Carroll has a header deflected over the bar.

Lossl is forced into punting the ball out of play after some pressure by a tireless Zabaeta.

Cresswell takes the free kick, flights in a ball for Collins, and his downward header is well stopped by Lossl.

Antonio scorches down the left, but Jorgensen sticks out a leg at the last minute to earn a booking.

Hernandez lays the ball off to Fonte on the overlap after some neat passing from West Ham, and his effort is deflected for a corner.

Van La Parra just about finds Mounie with a cross to the edge of the box, but West Ham finally get a foul against Carroll by Schindler. Carroll then receives the ball about 25 yards from goal, but he scuffs a volleyed effort at goal.

This shows how Carroll has been used so far tonight.

Antonio is the latest player to concede a foul high up the pitch. Huddersfield are on the back foot, but certainly not cowed.

Carroll is penalised for grappling with Schindler, and that's fair enough.

Van La Parra brings the ball down on the left, but his pass forward rolls out of play.

Antonio skins his man down the right, he pulls back a clever ball to Hernandez, lurking at the back post, and he clips a shot against the crossbar.

A third of West Ham's passes have been long balls, Sky says.

Cresswell takes a corner on the left, and as Collins challenges for the ball, Billing gets clattered by Mounie and needs a bit of treatment.

Ince jinks his way into the box, takes on one too many players and is tackled, allowing Huddersfield to win a throw.

Huddersfield are playing it around the back, for their first spell of proper possession.

It is absoutely rodding it down here. Collins goes down in the centre circle after Ince catches him a tad late, and he jogs off for a check-up.

Carroll fires a low ball across the box with his left foot towards Kouyate, and his outstretched leg is just a fraaction short.

Let's absolutely kick off.

Sam Allardyce believes that West Ham's back three will allow them to stay compact, with the midfield two. It's certainly set to be a tactically fascinating two hours.

I'm predicting a 2-0 win to West Ham. They can't keep being as bad as they have done, can they?
