Bayer Leverkusen & West Ham Squad Analysis
Bayer Leverkusen manager Xabi Alonso will be without two of their team's young and talented stars for this game. Arthur, the Brazilian right back, has been out since September and will not be fit, while striker Adam Hlozek picked up an ankle injury in the weekend win over Union Berlin and is likely to miss out. Young defensive midfielder Noah Mbamba is not eligible to play in this tournament. Florian Wirtz has been sensational form Leverkusen this season with the young German midfielder attracting plenty of interest from top clubs around Europe given his fantastic form, scoring a career best 14 goals from 39 games so far this season.
David Moyes biggest question mark is over his outstanding England winger Jarrod Bowen, who picked up an impact injury on his hip in the win against Wolves. The Hammers medical team assessing are his injury and it will be a game time decision to see if Bowen can play in the game. His absence would be a huge blow to the Hammers given his outstanding form this season. The only other Hammers absentee will be goalkeeper Alphonse Areola who has a groin issue and has been ruled out until the end of April, with the experienced Lukas Fabianski to deputise. If Bowen is unable to play then elegant Brazilian Lucas Paqueta will be vital to the Hammers as a source of creativity in the team.
