Manchester United vs West Ham United
Competition: English Premier League
Competition: English Premier League
After a comfortable 4-0 win against Feyenoord in UEL, Manchester United team
will look to replicate their dominating performance. The Red Devils were
very impressive against Arsenal too, and should have been further in
front when Olivier Giroud's 89th-minute equaliser secured a 1-1 draw.
Their home form is largely encouraging - as they only lost against
Man City so far, and they have won five of their last eight home
matches in all competitions. They sit 6th in the Premier League, 9
points behind league leaders Chelsea.
Ibrahimovic will
return to the side after last weekend's match through suspension.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan has given Jose Mourinho a real headache after
flourishing in midweek's game and the Armenia international could
replace Marcus Rashford in the offensive midfield trio, alongside Paul
Pogba and Juan Mata. Antonio Valencia and Phil Jones look fairly certain
starters in defence, but Daley Blind and Luke Shaw could challenge
Marcos Rojo and Matteo Darmian for starting spots elsewhere in the back
four. Eric Bailly and Chris Smalling both remain on the sidelines.
West Ham United team enter this clash on te back of 3-2 derby defeat at Tottenham
last weekend, their fifth loss in the last six league matches.
Furthermore, Salven Bilic's men have lost 6 of their last 7 away league
matches in Premier League and
they conceded at least two goals in all five of those defeats. Only Hull have conceded more goals than the Hammers this season.
The Hammers can welcome back captain Mark Noble from suspension but Winston Reid is banned as he was sent out last weekend. James Collins looks set to earn a recall alongside Cheikhou Kouyate and Angelo Ogbonna in defence. Up front, Diafra Sakho and Andre Ayew are in contention for a starting berth while Manuel Lanzini and Dimitri Payet are likely to start as offensive midfielders with Michail Antonio and Aaron Cresswell deployed as wing backs. Sam Byram, Reece Oxford and Gokhan Tore remain sidelined.
