Third-placed Manchester United are third on the log with only a point separating them from league leaders Leicester City and the second-placed Manchester City. West Ham approach this fixture after beating the likes of Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea at home. The home team has a more solid defensive unit compared to the attacking force. On the other hand, West Ham are more dangerous upfront and they could take advantage of this fact to terrorize the Red Devils defence.
Team news
Manchester United
Luis Van Gaal’s men will approach this fixture without the services of Wayne Rooney, who is out due to injury. Other players in the injury list include Ander Herrera, Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo and Antonio Valencia. Youngster Jesse Lingard is also doubtful ahead of the match after suffering a hamstring injury.
West Ham United
The hosts will have to play without Valencia, Payet and Shakho due to injuries. Randolph is also doubtful for the match but reports indicate that he could pass a late fitness test. Payet is the leading top scorer for the Hammers with five goals, and his absence from the starting lineup against United will be a major blow to Slaven Bilic’s men.
