West Ham United boss Manuel Pellegrini will make the final call on Marko Arnautovic's return to action.

The Hammers travel across London to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday.

Arnautovic has recovered from a foot injury that kept him out of Monday's draw with Liverpool. But Pellegrini was coy on whether he would start the Austrian against Palace.

He said: "Marko worked the complete week. It is good news, of course. He is a player who makes a difference and important for our team.

"He needs to recover his best form after not playing and his last injury and I hope he will be an important player for the remainder of the season."
