West Ham United probably believe they are catching Manchester United at the right time, given how the Red Devils had to fight hard for a win over FC Astana in Europa League action last night.
While United are unbeaten on the road this season, they have looked unconvincing away from Old Trafford, and Manuel Pellegrinni’s Hammers side has looked solid for much of the young season thus far. Sunday brings the 120th meeting between the two sides with United having won 58, the Irons 33, accompanied by 29 draws. Let’s take a look at who their first team on the pitch could be this weekend.
