Manchester United and West Ham United had contrasting starts to the season and they have also had mixed results going deeper in the season. Manchester United opened with a 4 – 0 win over Chelsea as West Ham suffered a 0 – 5 loss to Manchester City. While United have struggled after that, West Ham have been rather stable, which makes this clash an interesting affair. This clash comes right after Manchester United picked a second straight win, in their Europa League clash against Astana, just days after picking three points against Leicester City at home. For Manchester United, these back to back wins are very crucial morale boosters especially at this time that they are dealing with a long list of injuries. West Ham are unbeaten in their last five matches since the loss to Manchester City, winning three and drawing two. They have also kept three straight clean sheets going to this match while they have failed to score in just one of the last five. With just one loss in the last nine league matches, West Ham will feel they can match United in this game, and they have only lost twice in 11 home matches in the Premier League. Five of the last eight of West Ham’s Premier League matches at home have ended in over 2.5 goals. Manchester United, on the other hand, have picked three wins in their opening six matches of the season, and these have come with three clean sheets. They have however not managed more than one goal a game since their win over Chelsea on the opening day. They have managed just two wins in their last 10 Premier League matches and have just two clean sheets in the last 15 matches in the league. United have failed to pick a win in their last six away matches in the Premier League; out of a possible 18 points, they have managed just three in the last six away league games. Four of the last six meetings between the two sides have ended in over 2.5 goals and in 120 meetings, West Ham have won 33 and United 58.
