Manchester Utd vs West Ham prediction: ENGLAND: Premier League betting tips on match 2025-05-10 13:15.
[p]Jubilation will still be in the Old Trafford air by the time Manchester United take to the field again on Sunday, as a come-from-behind 4-1 win over Athletic Club on Thursday booked their place in the UEFA Europa League final. An emphatic 7-1 aggregate success provides Ruben Amorim’s men with the chance to salvage a huge piece of success from an otherwise dreadful season marred by their worst-ever Premier League campaign.[/p]
[p]The Red Devils will look to use their two matches between now and the final to generate some momentum, which will require ending a six-match winless run in the Premier League (D2, L4). They’ve only suffered a longer run once in competition history, and that came back in 1992, so they’ll at least be happy to see West Ham as the next visitors considering that United have won the last four H2H league meetings at Old Trafford without conceding.[/p]
[p]West Ham find themselves in a battle with their hosts for league position, but unfortunately for both sets of supporters, they’re fighting to avoid finishing as the lowest-ranked surviving club in this season’s Premier League. The Hammers currently occupy that position, and a miserable 16-match winless run in league visits to Old Trafford suggests they’re unlikely to be moving forward here (D3, L13).[/p]
[p]While this ground has been far from a safe haven for West Ham, they have enjoyed facing United in recent times, winning three of the last four league meetings (L1). That’s as many as they managed in the previous 28 beforehand, but Graham Potter’s men hardly journey north full of confidence, as they’re in the midst of their worst winless top-flight run since May 2011, while only the bottom three have picked up fewer points than them since Potter was appointed in January.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Mason Mount’s Manchester United career finally has lift-off, with a brace on Thursday making it three goals in two appearances after managing just one in his first 40 matches for the club. Aaron Wan-Bissaka makes his first return to Old Trafford since departing in the summer having directly contributed to five goals in the Premier League this term (G2, A3) – he only managed more in one of his five Manchester United campaigns.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Four of Manchester United’s last six league goals were scored after the 80th minute.[/p]
