Late fitness test for injured Keane

West Ham will give a late fitness test to calf injury victim Robbie Keane before deciding whether to include him in their squad for tomorrow’s clash with relegation rivals West Brom.

Reports this morning suggested Keane could be out for up to six weeks with a torn calf muscle.

James Tomkins (calf) and Matthew Upson (Achilles) are doubts but Manuel da Costa is available after coming through last weekend’s match unscathed despite missing the previous four months with an ankle injury.

Long-term absentee Thomas Hitzlsperger (thigh) played an hour in the reserves this week but is unlikely to be risked.

Team (from): Green, Jacobsen, Gabbidon, Reid, Tomkins, Bridge, Upson, Faubert, O’Neil, Noble, Parker, Obinna, Boa Morte, Piquionne, Keane, Kovac, Ilunga, Boffin, Cole, Sears, Ba.
