West Ham vs Nottingham Forest: Preview
Set to face this side he began the season with, Espirito Santo's Hammers need the points more than ever on home soil.
It's just two wins in 15 games for the 51-year-old, with West Ham's hierarchy already said the be assessing potential replacements.
Reports this week from The Guardian say Nuno has been described as 'distant and uncommunicative on a day-to-day basis', which is making him an unpopular figure at the London Stadium.
In terms of injuries and omissions, Lucas Paqueta (back) and Jean-Clair Todibo (groin) will need assessment before the game, while El Hadji Malick Diouf and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are still away at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Dyche's Forest are in equally as bad form, with the former Everton boss having won four of his twelve games in charge to this point.
Four straight defeats have meant the Tricky Trees are firmly in a relegation scrap, with England duo Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson unable to save matters currently.
Forest have now endured their joint-longest losing run of the campaign and could also now suffer four straight losses on the road, should they lose on Tuesday at the London Stadium.
Matz Sels is expected to come back in after fellow goalkeeper John was forced off with what looked to be a suspected calf injury at Villa Park.
