Hampered by knee issue Scamacca is dealing with a knee problem and could be in doubt to face Southampton on Sunday.

Impact Scamacca has been an unused substitute for each of West Ham's previous four Premier League contests, so his potential absence may not have much of an impact on the starting XI or fantasy players. Still, the forward has three goals on 20 shots (10 on target) in 16 outings (11 starts) this season and could be a sneaky fantasy target if he features versus Southampton.

Scores in Conference League Scamacca started and scored in the 4-0 Europa Conference League victory against AEK Larnaca before the March international break.

Impact Scamacca hasn't featured in a Premier League match since mid-January as he's been an unused substitute in four consecutive games since returning from a knee injury, but he has appeared three times in cup competitions during that span, including his start and goal against Larnaca. Still, the summer signing is behind Michail Antonio (calf) and Danny Ings in West Ham's striker depth chart at the moment.

Makes bench for Spurs clash Scamacca is fit and in the match day squad to face Tottenham on Sunday.

Impact Scamacca is good to go after recovering from a knee injury in time to take up a role on the bench. The forward has scored three goals in 16 appearances.

May be available off bench Scamacca (knee) won't be included in the starting XI against Tottenham on Sunday but could be a substitute option. Manager David Moyes told reporters, "It's great that Gianluca is...

Impact Scamacca has missed the club's last three contests, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him being eased back into action. For the season, the forward has started 11 of 16 contests in which he recorded three goals on 30 shots (10 on target) and 13 chances created.

FEBRUARY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Saturday Scamacca (knee) is expected to remain sidelined versus Chelsea on Saturday after manager David Moyes told reporters the squad would be "Much the way we were at the weekend."

Impact Scamacca is poised to miss his third straight contest due to his lingering knee issue. In his last five appearances (four starts), the forward generated one goal on eight shots (four on target), six tackles (four won) and three interceptions. Once cleared to play, Scamacca should reclaim his place in the starting XI where he's capable of offering decent offensive upside.

Remains out against Newcastle Scamacca (knee) is still unavailable for Saturday's clash against Newcastle United, West Ham manager David Moyes announced Friday.

Impact Scamacca remains sidelined for this weekend's match, with Michail Antonio likely to start again up front and new signing Danny Ings (knee) waiting in the wings for his opportunity to prove himself in the position.

FEBRUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out with knee injury Scamacca (knee) is out for "a short time," according to manager David Moyes.

Impact As usual, Moyes didn't have much to say about an injury to one of his players. Scamacca played 14 minutes off the bench last weekend, but he's clearly not right and he'll either be out a couple weeks or a couple months. Of note, Danny Ings was brought in to help, likely because Scamacca doesn't have a short-term timeline.

JANUARY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays 14 minutes Scamacca recorded one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created across 14 minutes in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Wolverhampton.

Impact Scamacca did not have to sit out any Hammers games because of his previous injury. That is unfortunate for Michail Antonio, who will continue being a backup now that the Italian can play again.

JANUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Among substitutes on Saturday Scamacca is fit and in the match day squad to face Wolverhampton on Saturday.

Impact Scamacca is available among the substitutes after dealing with a knee injury in the buildup to the match. The forward has scored three goals in 15 appearances since his summer move from Sassuolo.

In doubt with knee injury Scamacca is dealing with a knee problem, raising doubt regarding his availability versus Wolverhampton on Saturday, Manager David Moyes told reporters, "Scamacca just felt his knee...

Impact Scamacca was forced off in the 67th minute versus Leeds but not before scoring his third goal of the season. If Scamacca is cleared to play, he should be a near-lock for the starting XI and could offer top-end fantasy value given his offensive upside.

JANUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in road draw Scamacca scored one goal from his only shot, made one tackle (won) and two interceptions in Wednesday's 2-2 draw at Leeds.

Impact Scamacca scored in the 46th minute to give them the 2-1 lead after halftime, but they couldn't hold it and ended up with the road draw. The forward now has three goals in the season. That was his 10th start in 14 appearances, but he played the full 90 minutes only twice three times over that span.

Attempts three shots Scamacca generated three shots (two on goal) in Friday's 2-0 loss against Brentford.

Impact Scamacca couldn't find the back of the net, but in a game where West Ham attacked constantly, Scamacca was one of the team's biggest threats. The Italian has failed to find the back of the net in seven league games, and he will try to snap that drought when the Hammers take on Leeds United on Jan. 4.

Starting Friday Scamacca (ankle) was named to the starting XI versus Brentford on Friday.

Impact Scamacca returns having missed the first match back from the World Cup break due to his ankle problem. Prior to the break, the forward had started eight straight matches in which he recorded two goals on 23 shots (six on target) and 10 chances created. With Scamacca seemingly fit, he should offer decent top-end fantasy value, though his production outside of goals is somewhat limited.

Still in doubt Friday Scamacca (ankle) may not be ready to face Brentford on Friday. Manager David Moyes told reporters, "Gianluca has done a little bit of training so we'll see how he is. He's lacking...

Impact Scamacca seems like a possible bench option at best given the manager's concern regarding his match fitness. Prior to the World Cup break, Scamacca started eight straight matches in which he recorded two goals on 23 shots (six on target) and 10 chances created. Once back to 100 percent, Scamacca should be a near-lock to reclaim his place in the starting XI.

Doubt for Arsenal Scamacca (ankle) is dealing with an ankle injury and is a doubt for Monday's matchup against Arsenal, per coach David Moyes.

Impact Scamacca was forced off early during an exhibition last weekend against Fulham following a heavy challenge from Andreas Pereira. The knock is apparently significant enough to potentially hold him out of the squad's first game back from the international break and will be worth monitoring as West Ham announces upcoming lineups.

Ankle knock in friendly Scamacca was forced off early during Saturday's friendly against Fulham, Football.London reports.

Impact Scamacca came off during the 12th minute of this exhibition following a heavy challenge from Fulham midfielder Andreas Pereira.

More information regarding the issue and his availability for a 26 December tilt against Arsenal should be forthcoming in the next several days.

Takes three shots in loss Scamacca took three shots (one on target) and made an interception in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against Leicester City. He also won one of two tackles in the match.

Impact Scamacca had some opportunities Saturday but couldn't find a way into Danny Ward and Leicester's net. Scamacca has started in all eight of West Ham's Premier League matches since October began, scoring two goals from 23 shots (six on target) and creating 10 chances in that span.

Held quiet in loss Scamacca had two shots (zero on goal) in Wednesday's 1-0 loss versus Liverpool.

Impact Scamacca wasn't able to find the normal volume he's become accustomed too, finding space hard to come by against an oppressive Liverpool defense. Scamacca still looked dangerous when on the ball and remains an interesting play as his role continues to grow in the West Ham starting Xi. The forward has scored two goals on 18 shots through his first nine games in England.
