West Ham face one of their biggest games in recent years this weekend, where they host Southampton and look to bring an end to a woeful run of three consecutive Premier League defeats.

Those losses have sucked the Hammers back into the relegation fight, where they sit just a single point above the relegation zone and this weekend’s opponents, which begins a crucial eight-game finale to the season.

With ties against Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal still to play, the significance of this weekend’s game has been increased dramatically- and David Moyes has a major fitness concern ahead of the game.

Argentine ace Manuel Lanzini is set to miss the friendly with Spain this evening after picking up a knock in international training, which leaves the Hammers sweating about the South American’s fitness.

Lanzini has struggled with injury problems this season but remains a stand-out player for the Hammers and one that has the capability to fire the east London side out of their struggles.
