Marko Arnautovic admits he is unsure whether a knee injury sustained in the 3-1 victory over Everton on Super Sunday will keep him out of West Ham's London derby against Chelsea next weekend.

The Austria frontman was instrumental in the Hammers securing their first win of the season at Goodison Park, providing an assist for Andriy Yarmolenko to open the scoring before netting his side's third goal.
