Team News: Family bereavement rules Kevin Nolan out of West Ham United, Everton clash

West Ham United captain Kevin Nolan misses his side's home Premier League clash against Everton due to a family bereavement.

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has made three changes ahead of their Premier League clash against Everton at Upton Park.

Club captain Kevin Nolan misses today's game due to a family bereavement, so Alex Song replaces him in midfield.

Meanwhile Reece Burke and Morgan Amalfitano drop to the Hammers bench, with Winston Reid and Carlton Cole taking their place in the home team's starting XI.

Toffees boss Roberto Martinez has opted to give a Premier League debut to 19-year-old Zimbabwean defender Brendan Galloway, as Leighton Baines has undergone ankle surgery and been ruled out for the remainder of the season.

Both West Ham and Everton are in with a chance of reaching next season's Europa League through the Fair Play standings, with Allardyce's side in pole position to qualify.

West Ham: Adrian, Jenkinson, Cresswell, Collins, Reid, Song, Noble, Kouyate, Downing, Cole, Valencia
Subs: Jaaskelainen, O'Brien, Burke, Amalfitano, Jarvis, Nene, Lee

Everton: Howard, Coleman, Galloway, Jagielka, Stones, McCarthy, Barry, Lennon, Barkley, Osman, Lukaku
Subs: Robles, Garbutt, Besic, Naismith, McGeady, Mirallas, Kone
