AFC Bournemouth head coach Gary O’Neil is hopeful of having Matías Viña back in the matchday squad after his early substitution against Tottenham Hotspur.
The Uruguayan international made his first Premier League start in the 3-2 victory over Spurs, netting a brilliant, dinked finish to score his first goal in England.
Elsewhere, O’Neil also revealed that Hamed Traore won’t be involved against the Hammers, having not played since the game with Brighton and Hove Albion at Vitality Stadium.
“Matìas Viña has done a couple of light days work after the bang on his back,” he said.
“We’re hopeful that he’ll be a part of the matchday squad on Sunday, but we’ll wait and see.
“Ryan Fredericks will still be out, Junior Stanislas will also be missing as well.
“Hamed Traore won’t be available for the first game next week definitely. Apart from that, the squad is in a quite similar place.”
