West Ham have only beaten Middlesbrough and Sunderland at home this year so need to get a win today, but Reading are unbeaten in four Premiership games and so the Hammers could have their work cut out today.
Suspensions and Injuries
James Collins (groin) and Luis Boa Morte (thigh) will have fitness tests ahead of the game.
Brynjar Gunnarsson is a doubt with a badly-gashed knee, John Oster (ankle) and Glen Little (heel) are both still sidelined.
Squads
West Ham (from): Green, Neill, McCartney, Gabbidon, Upson, Ljungberg, Parker, Ashton, Pantsil, Solano, Noble, Mullins, Spector, Collins, Wright, Walker, Camara, Cole.
Reading (from): Hahnemann, Federici, Murty, De la Cruz, Ingimarsson, Sonko, Bikey, Duberry, Shorey, Hunt, Gunnarsson, Harper, Cisse, Fae, Convey, Doyle, Kitson, Long, Lita.
Coppell: new players coming in
"I challenged the players and I made the decision (not to make major changes) in the summer.
"After half a season we have reached the conclusion that we need two or three reinforcements.
"That will be our intention but come the last day of January if we haven't got anyone I'll go with what I've got."
Eyefootball Premiership Predictor
WEST HAM 1-0 READING
This has the makings of a low scoring game all over it. This will go the way of the home side - but it won't be easy at all.
Goalscorer: Dean Ashton
