West Ham will be without Mark Noble and Michail Antonio when they host Newcastle.
Skipper Noble has a slight hamstring problem and winger Antonio is sidelined by a calf injury.
Manuel Lanzini is still suspended but fellow midfielder Cheikhou Kouyate returns to the squad after recovering from his hamstring injury.
Newcastle striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is out of the Premier League trip to West Ham as he continues to battle a back injury.
The Serbia international is likely to be sidelined for another 10 days with the problem, and he has been joined on the sidelines by full-back Jesus Gamez, who has undergone surgery on an ankle.
Midfielder Jonjo Shelvey completes a two-match ban, while manager Rafael Benitez will assess a series of knocks before he names his team.
West Ham manager David Moyes said: “My ambition is to be at the top, it always is, but doing that is small steps. It's a long journey.
“Quite often supporters don't like that. We're not necessarily a club who will spend hundreds of millions to get there in the short term.
“So we need to rely on our youth policy and trying to develop the club will get you there. It takes time.”
