Crysencio Summerville To Start | Predicted 4-4-1-1 West Ham United Lineup To Face Everton

Choosing between him and Aaron Wan-Bissaka is likely the only real headache Nuno faces with his team selection this week. In the heart of the defence, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Axel Disasi will pair up to provide aerial strength and calm distribution. Malick Diouf rounds out the back four on the left. The group will be feeling good, having just secured back-to-back Premier League clean sheets for the first time in over a year.

In the middle of the park, the quartet of Jarrod Bowen, Mateus Fernandes, Tomás Souček, and Crysencio Summerville will be tasked with dictating play against an Everton side that has looked shaky recently. Souček provides the veteran presence and defensive cover needed to shield the centre-backs, while Fernandes offers the energy to drive the team forward. Bowen will look to cause problems from the right; he notably hit his 350th league appearance for the club during the Palace draw. On the opposite flank, Summerville’s job is to stretch the Toffees’ defence and exploit any gaps left behind.

Attack:

Pablo is slated to play in the number 10 role, using his vision to link the midfield to the attack. West Ham invested heavily in both Pablo and Valentín Castellanos in January, a combined £50 million move driven by Nuno’s specific recruitment targets.

Castellanos will spearhead the attack as the lone striker, and the pressure is on him to be clinical in front of goal. History suggests we’re in for goals, as both teams have scored in each of their last five league meetings. Nuno will be demanding that his frontmen stay sharp and make every chance count at the London Stadium this Saturday.
