Team News: Enner Valencia on bench for West Ham United

West Ham United's Enner Valencia, who starred for Ecuador at this summer's World Cup, is on the bench for today's Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur.

West Ham United manager Sam Allardyce has given debuts to summer signings Cheikhou Kouyate and Aaron Cresswell in today's opening Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur at Upton Park this afternoon.
