West Ham United boss David Moyes has confirmed that talisman Michail Antonio is out of the London derby against Crystal Palace.
Both clubs go head-to-head on Wednesday night in the Premier League, in what is set to be an intense clash.
30-year-old Antonio, who has been the team's primary goal getter this season, is struggling with a hamstring injury.
While he is training, this game has come too early for him.
"Michail is coming on, he is back on the grass," said Moyes to reporters. "I think the game tomorrow might come too early for him.
"He is coming on and we are getting him closer.
"We want to get him right, be correct with him.
"We are missing him and we know that."
