Man Utd’s habit of winning dramatically was on full display in their midweek match against Wolves. It looked like the Red Devils had thrown away three points when Pedro Neto grabbed a 95th-minute equalizer, but a curling strike from 18-year-old midfielder Kobbie Mainoo snatched the win for Man Utd at the death. Now the side returns to the iconic Old Trafford with the opportunity to break into the top six if they can beat their next opponent.
West Ham are unbeaten in six EPL matches with wins against Arsenal, Wolves and Man Utd during that spell, and yet that mood around the club is turning a little sour. That’s partially because of a trio of frustrating draws in quick succession, but also because performances under manager David Moyes have been generally poor for much of the season. Nevertheless, it’s hard to complain too much when you’re sitting pretty in 6th position.
Here's how they line up:
Man Utd: Onana, Dalot, Martinez, Maguire, Shaw, Mainoo, Casemiro, Fernandes, Garnacho, Rashford, Hojlund.
West Ham: Areola, Coufal, Johnson, Aguerd, Zouma, Emerson, Soucek, Alvarez, Kudus, Ward-Prowse, Bowen.
Can Man Utd follow up their latest win with another three points? Or will West Ham’s unbeaten streak continue? You’ll have to watch a Man Utd vs West Ham live stream to find out, and we’ve got all the details you need to tune in from anywhere down below.
