Glenn Roeder is set to ring the changes as his West Ham side goes in search of a desperately needed win against Blackburn Rovers.
It has been 14 games since Hammers won a Premiership match and they are still without a win at home.
And after a dismal defensive sequence which has seen 13 goals conceded in the last three games, the future is looking very bleak for the Irons.
But Roeder is boosted by the return of up to four players to his squad, including the influential Paolo Di Canio.
"There are three or four players who didn't go to Old Trafford who will probably start tonight," he said.
"That will give us the lift we need.
"Paolo is available, Fredi Kanoute is in contention and of course Les Ferdinand can play."
