Nuno Espirito Santo has provided a team news update ahead of West Ham United's Championship clash with Lincoln City.

The Hammers make the trip to Sincil Bank on Wednesday evening in what will be a humbling experience.

West Ham were held 1-1 by QPR last time out in what was a disappointing result, with Jarrod Bowen missing a last-gasp penalty.

That makes it three games without a win in all competitions either side of the international break, two of those coming in the league.

There is now some added pressure on West Ham to get the job done at Lincoln, who are 16th in the Championship after losing 3-0 to Sheffield United last time out.

The good news for Nuno is that West Ham have near enough a clean bill of health.

West Ham injury news latest pre-Lincoln

Nuno provided an update on West Ham's squad at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday.

The Portuguese confirmed that Keiber Lamadrid is the Irons' only prominent injury concern for the trip to Lincoln.

Lamadrid has made just two West Ham appearances this season and has not been seen since the win over Wolves on 1 September.

Nuno did add that there are general knocks in the camp, without naming any names.

Mohamadou Kante is also back available for West Ham after serving a one-match ban against QPR.

Lincoln City team news for West Ham clash

Lincoln have more injury issues to contend with than West Ham, but head coach Tom Shaw provided a positive update on that front on Tuesday.

Reeco Hackett and Andrei Coubis have both been out of action, but the latter is now back training and has been given a chance of featuring against the Irons.

Hackett, meanwhile, is back training after recovering from a concussion.

That leaves Ethan Wheatley as "touch and go", while Tendayi Darikwa and Tottenham loanee Mason Melia are both out.

It means six players could miss out in total across the two teams, but thankfully only one of those is a West Ham player.
