Manchester United vs West Ham United Preview

Manchester United will continue their quest for a place in the Premier League top four when they take on West Ham in this game.

The Red Devils have been a resurgent side since the sacking of Jose Mourinho and replacing him with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

They come into this game unbeaten at home in the league under the Norwegian and regardless of the outcome of their match against Barcelona; they need a win here to keep their top four hopes alive.

They are currently 6th in the league table with 6 games left to play and they are just 3 points behind Tottenham who are 4th.

One thing that may be a positive for Manchester United ahead of this clash is West Ham’s dismal form on the road.

The Hammers have only collected one point from their travels since the beginning of 2019 and won their last away game in December 2018.

For a side that spent so much money in the summer, the Hammers were expected to finish inside the top seven at least, but they currently sit outside the top ten and 5 points off 7th position.

Bookmakers have priced Manchester United up as strong odds-on favourites to come out on top in this game while goal markets point a high-scoring game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading heavily odds-on.

Romelu Lukaku is favourite to score the opening goal of the game closely followed by Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial.

This Saturday evening fixture gets underway at 17:30 BST.
