West Ham XI vs Fiorentina: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, Europa Conference League Final injury latest

Confirmed team news and lineups update ahead of tonight’s Prague showdown

David Moyes has named his side for tonight’s Europa Conference League final, one he hopes is good enough to beat Fiorentina and earn West Ham a first major trophy in 43 years.

With a ten-day gap between the final day of the Premier League season and the showpiece in Prague, the Hammers have been away on a warm weather training camp in Portugal, allowing the boss to keep a close eye on the squad, and Moyes has no concerns over his team’s sharpness.

“We’ve played 56 games this season and last year 63 or 64,” he said. “Hopefully the gap of 10 days won’t be too big an issue when we’ve played so many games.”

Gianluca Scamacca is the only player missing, with the Italian striker having seen his season curtailed by knee surgery.

The Hammers boss rotated his team in the final Premier League games of the season, with survival already assured, but reverts to the first XI that became established during his side’s upturn in form, with perhaps only two areas of debate.

At right-back, Vladimir Coufal’s plays in his home city as Thilo Kehrer is named on the bench, while Moyes has opted for Said Benrahma over Pablo Fornals on the left wing.

Declan Rice leads the side, in what is expected to be his final West Ham appearance before a big-money summer move.

Starting XI: Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Aguerd, Emerson, Soucek, Rice, Paqueta, Bowen, Antonio, Benrahma

Subs: Fabianski, Johnson, Cresswell, Fornals, Lanzini, Downes, Cornet, Ings, Ogbonna, Kehrer, Potts, Mubama
