Manchester United take on West Ham this afternoon in the Premier League at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag’s side have gone unbeaten at home and abroad in the seven games since a 6-3 humbling at Manchester City at the start of the month, and could climb above Chelsea into fifth with victory here.
They come up against West Ham, who have recovered from their poor start to the season and have only lost once since mid-September.
That defeat came at Anfield but the Hammers would leapfrog Liverpool into ninth in the Premier League table with a win this afternoon.

84 mins: Dangerous by McTominay as he lunges towards the ball int he box and comes together with Zouma. The Dutch defender goes down and VAR has a quick check for a penalty but deems it as no spot-kick. Probably just about the right call although McTominay playing with fire there.
