Manchester United vs West Ham Preview
The Manchester United dugout is expected to rotate heavily with one eye on the Europa League final at the Basque capital. Domestic form for both sides has been terrible, with both sets of fans wishing the season actually had ended long back. Let’s take a deeper look at how the teams approach this fixture.
Manchester United
Winless in the last three Premier League outings, Manchester United has been a complete alter ego of itself in the league when compared to the European competition. Alejandro Garnacho has been a silver lining to their dreadful Premier League season, along with their captain, Bruno Fernandes, who has 8 goals and 9 assists so far. With a long list of injuries, Man United will still rotate as much as possible and hope to have a fresh squad in for the finals of the Europa League.
West Ham United
West Ham United have not won a game for 8 match weeks now, and have also not been able to keep a clean sheet for the same number of matches. Their attacking department has suffered equally as much as their defensive stride, managing to score just 7 goals in their last five Premier League encounters.
Manchester United vs West Ham Under/Over Predictions
The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game. Have a look at the predictions for the game below.
Total goals under 2.5 @ +100 as per BetMGM: With almost nothing to play, this might be a very tiring and unwanted fixture for both parties. So, expecting less action and more rotation, the game will likely have fewer than 3 goals.
Manchester United vs West Ham Player Picks
Bruno Fernandes to score anytime @ +175 as per Bet MGM: Perhaps the only bright spot in the Manchester season so far in the League, Bruno Fernandes is expected to be on the score sheet once again. The United captain can be the deciding factor between the two teams with rest of the squad rotating for the big game coming soon.
Chido Obi to score anytime @ +200 as per FanDuel: Manchester United youngster Chido Obi-Martin might be in the squad due to the huge rotational possibilities, and might just be a good pick to be on the score sheet. The 17 year old Danish striker will be looking to make his mark in a season very concerning for United’s front line.
Manchester United vs West Ham United Prediction
This is an unwanted fixture for both sides, but West Ham will have the chance to have their first league win at Manchester in nearly two decades. Last time out, Jarrod Bowen earned his team a point on the road against Tottenham and United need to ensure his team’s back line fails him.
Our Final Prediction: United 1-1 West Ham. A point shared between a heavily rotating Manchester side and a 17th-positioned West Ham seems to be the fitting result.
