Watch: David Moyes confident Patirce Evra can make an impact at West Ham



West Ham United manager David Moyes spoke ahead their next Premier League match against Watford at London Stadium on Saturday and confirmed new signing Patrice Evra could make his debut.

The 36-year-old French left-back has been without a team since last November when he was suspended after kicking a fan in a Europa League match while playing for Marseille.

Moyes and Evra worked together at Manchester United before the former France international moved to Juventus in 2014.

West Ham have not lost in their last three Premier League home matches - Watford are looking to win back-to-back matches for the first time since November.

But Gracia's first match in charge could not have gone better - with his new side registering a 4-1 win over reigning champions Chelsea on Monday.
