West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce is looking forward to testing Reece Burke with Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke.
For the 18-year-old, who was voted the Young Hammer of the Year at the club awards on Wednesday night, this will be just his third league start for the senior side.
Allardyce said: "It will probably be Reece's most difficult test - but then he did have a difficult test in his last away match, against Charlie Austin and Bobby Zamora. Particularly Austin, who has been free-scoring in the Premier League for QPR.
"Reece, though, managed to cope with them both. Reece may not have the physical presence of a Zamora or a Benteke just yet so, along with Ginge (Collins), he will have to be clever to make sure he copes with a man in good form.
"Benteke, it would seem, is back on form. He's a goal scorer who we all, when he is in such confident mood, can be unstoppable."
