Premier League 3pm

West Ham conceded two late goals in a 3-2 loss to Spurs last weekend and are unlikely to get into such a strong position at Old Trafford.

It has taken a while for Jose Mourinho to put his stamp on United but the last three performances have been encouraging.

The Red Devils are desperate to get closer to the top four and are likely to dismantle the Hammers, who will miss suspended centre-back Winston Reid.

Recommendation
Man Utd -1 on Asian handicap
2pts 4-5 Betfred

Team news

Man Utd Eric Bailly (knee) and Chris Smalling (toe) remain sidelined and Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns from a domestic ban.
West Ham Mark Noble is available after suspension but Winston Reid is banned. Andy Carroll (ankle) is back in training but Reece Oxford, Sam Byram, Gokhan Tore and Arthur Masuaku are sidelined.

Key stat
West Ham have lost six of their last seven away games
