JOE HART has been busy preparing for West Ham's first home game of the season — by hiding gloves around East London.

The Hammers take on Premier League new-boys Huddersfield at the London Stadium tonight as they look for their first points of the campaign.

And England No1 Hart has marked the occasion with a competition for fans called 'Finders Keepers'.

Hart said: "To mark the first home game of the season I've set up a competition called finders keepers.

"So stay tuned to find out how you can get your hands on a couple of pairs of these.

"The way we are going to run it is leaving five of these between the London Stadium and the Boleyn Ground, and post clues on the Instagram story.

"And when you find then post the picture with the hashtag 'finder keepers' and I'll get back to you."

Clue No1 was the West Ham club store in Stratford while clue No1 was a bench in West Ham park.

The game then moved to a Upton Park tube station with the fourth by the famous World Cup Sculpture near the Hammers' former home the Boleyn Ground.

And all the first four were discovered by some lucky fans — but the fifth pair still out their in the London Stadium.

So if you're going to the game tonight, make sure you keep your eyes peeled for the final set.

But most fans would probably take three points rather than a pair of gloves after the Hammers terrible start to the season.

Slaven Bilic's side have lost all three of their opening away games and sit at the bottom of the table going into the clash.
