West Ham have lost just once in their last six Premier League games, a shock 5-0 defeat in the London derby at Fulham at the start of December, but they've also won eight out of 12 in all competitions. That does include a 5-1 thrashing away to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup in midweek, but the Hammers are undefeated at home since the end of October, so will be confident of bouncing back and heaping more misery on Man Utd at the London Stadium.
Man Utd have struggled to put together a decent run of form all season, and while a draw away to Liverpool last time out looks like a good result on paper, they were probably a bit lucky to leave Anfield with a point. It was certainly a more impressive performance than the one against Bayern Munich the week before, but it meant that Erik ten Hag's side have won just once in their last six games in all competitions. Can they deliver their fans an early Christmas present with victory in the capital today?
Here's how the teams line up:
West Ham: Areola (GK); Coufal, Zouma, Mavropanos, Emerson; Alvarez, Ward-Prowse, Soucek, Paqueta, Bowen; Kudus.
Man Utd: Onana (GK); Wan-Bissaka, Kambwala, Evans, Shaw; Mainoo, McTominay; Antony, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund.
