Team News: Diafra Sakho ruled out for West Ham United

West Ham United striker Diafra Sakho is ruled out of his side's clash against Stoke City with a shoulder injury, while the Potters make two changes for the match.

Stoke City boss Mark Hughes has made two changes to his side for their Premier League clash against West Ham United this afternoon.

Steve Sidwell and Victor Moses come in at the expense of the suspended Phil Bardsley and Marko Arnautovic from the side that was knocked out of the Capital One Cup in midweek by Southampton. Peter Crouch is also missing from the squad due to suspension.

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce has made one change to his side from their victory over Manchester City at Upton Park last week.

Diafra Sakho is out with a shoulder injury and is replaced in the starting lineup by Cheikhou Kouyate.

Stoke: Begovic, Cameron, Shawcross, Wilson, Pieters; Nzonzi, Sidwell, Walters, Bojan, Moses, Diouf
Subs: Sorensen, Muniesa, Teixeira, Adam, Ireland, Assaidi, Arnautovic

West Ham: Adrian, Jenkinson, Collins, Reid, Cresswell, Song, Noble, Kouyate, Amalfitano, Downing, Valencia
Subs: Jaaskelainen, O'Brien, Tomkins, Poyet, Zarate, Jarvis, Cole
