Manchester United will be back at home to welcome West Ham United in their next Premier League game, with the two sides right in the top four battle. West Ham United are currently fourth with 37 points while Manchester United are seventh, two points below. Manchester United showed better composure in their 3-1 win over Brentford in their last game, and with the goals now flowing, perhaps they just need to fix the defence. In the last five matches they’ve had six different scorers, and the distribution that has only Scott McTominay and Bruno Fernandes scoring two each is a good sign. United have one clean sheet in their last six matches and just three in 10. They’ve scored more than a goal in three of their last five matches now and the three matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

West Ham United suffered a first loss in four matches at home to Leeds United, a 3-2 outcome ending a run of four straight wins and back to back clean sheets. One thing that hasn’t been in short supply at West Ham United is the goals. They have scored in each of their last seven matches, and netted two or more goals in each of their last six games. Five of their last seven matches have produced over 2.5 goals and the Hammers have conceded two or more goals in five of their last eight games. Just like Manchester United, West Ham have three clean sheets in their last 10 matches. In their recent matches, Jarrod Bowen has been the outstanding performer, scoring four times in the last three games while Manuel Lanzini has also done well, with three goals in. four games. The two are fit and will be among the names to light up this encounter.
