Matchday Gallery | Hammers behind at Leicester

West Ham United are behind in their Premier League clash against Leicester City at King Power Stadium.

Former England striker Jamie Vardy coolly slotted home one-on-one to put the hosts in front in the second minute, and after a lengthy VAR check - following an initial offside decision - the goal was given by referee Josh Smith.

The Hammers - who welcomed five players back into the starting XI for this clash under the lights - face an uphill challenge to bounce back to winning ways, following Saturday's defeat at home to Arsenal, and make it back-to-back successes on the road.

Jarrod Bowen has forced multiple good saves from Foxes stopper Mads Hermansen, while Tomáš Souček and Carlos Soler have gone close, and Danny Ings has hit the post, as Julen Lopetegui's men continue their search for an equaliser.
