West Ham vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Manchester United have dominated previous fixtures against West Ham United and will go into this one too as the favorites. Bookies have odds of 2.14 for a United win and 3.55 for West Ham United to win while a draw is priced at 3.88.

West Ham United are meeting with Manchester United for the third time this season – they’ve lost in both earlier matches, one of them in the FA Cup. This time they will hope for a better outcome, and given they are just four points above the relegation zone, this is a game they will brand a must-win clash. Their recent form has however left a lot to be desired, with the Hammers having lost each of the last three, conceding a total of nine goals. In their most recent game, they did well to contain Manchester City in the first half but crumbled in the second, losing 3-0. All of West Ham United’s last five matches have ended in over 2.5 goals while both teams have scored in three of them. With three wins in 11 home league matches, West Ham will need a lot of improvement in this game.

Manchester United, just like West Ham United, are coming from a loss, and theirs was quite painful, conceding a penalty in stoppage time against Brighton. The Seagulls went on to win 1-0 courtesy of that penalty, converted by Alexis MacAllister. While this was United’s first loss in four matches, it was the third time in five matches that they failed to score. It was a mark of their inconsistency and the fact that they have only one win inside 90 minutes in five matches firms up their struggles in recent matches. In the premier League, Manchester United have won just once in five away matches, and failed to score in three of those five matches. Meanwhile, they have one clean sheet in five away league games, and conceded two or more in three of the five.
