It may only be September and five games into the Premier League season, but already this match has been billed as a must-win game for West Ham and their winless manager, Manuel Pellegrini.

Defeats against Liverpool, Bournemouth, Arsenal and Wolves leaves the Hammers rooted to the bottom of the table after spending over £100m in the summer transfer window.

Marco Silva's start at Everton has had a much smoother start to life at his new club than his opponent in the dugout. A win takes them within touching distance of the top-four, but they remain without joint-top scorer Richarlison, who is serving the third game of his suspension after seeing red against Bournemouth.

Everton 0-1 West Ham

14: I guess that would be fair to say it came against the run of play after Everton's strong start, but West Ham have also began this game with their tails up. The 4-1-4-1 seems to be looking goof for Pellegrini's side...for now.

20: Holgate makes a last ditch tackle on Arnautovic and West Ham move the ball around with a quiet confidence now, Everton resorting to long balls over the top advance

24: Arnautovic causes problems from Everton again, he stays strong against Holgate before going down on the challenge, there has been a lot of turnover since the goal with no side being able to put a consistent period of play together

25: We should be level, Digne whips the ball into West Ham's area and Tosun has a free header but he sends it striaght at Fabianksi, he needs to do better there

28: Everton are making waves again they just lack a quality final ball, Schneiderlin loses possession and the ball comes over to Arnautovic on the right but Pickford is quick off his line and he gets there first booting the ball up field

30: GOAL for Yarmolenko

Pickford makes a mistake when kicking the ball out of his area, Noble wins the ball and gives it to Yarmolenko, he takes it forward, cuts back inside and slots it home with his left foot, two goals for him and two for West Ham

43: Noble releases Felipe Anderson but he runs into several blue shirts, he does well to hold onto the ball and wins a free kick as Kenny brings him down, Yarmolenko whips it in but Pickford comes and claims it
