West Ham's Europa League comeback hopes dealt a blow as Jarrod Bowen is set to miss out with injury - while Lucas Paqueta is suspended for the second leg against Bayer Leverkusen

Jarrod Bowen is set to miss the second leg of West Ham’s Europa League tie with Bayer Leverkusen.

Bowen did not travel to Germany for the first leg last week, where the Hammers were beaten 2-0, and also missed the defeat by Fulham on Sunday.

Mail Sport understands Bowen will not be fit for the second leg at the London Stadium, with the forward needing more time to recover from the back injury he sustained at Wolves.

It comes as a blow to boss David Moyes, who will also be without Lucas Paqueta and Emerson through suspension.
