West Ham v Manchester United: Commentary, updates, goals and stats

Manchester United can make it five wins from five under interim boss Michael Carrick when they go to West Ham tonight.

Carrick has had a transformational effect on United since replacing Ruben Amorim and they now have both eyes fixed firmly on finishing in a Champions League qualifying spot.

A trip to the London Stadium won’t be straightforward, however.

The Hammers have been revitalised of late with wins against Tottenham, Sunderland and Burnley breathing new life into their fight to avoid relegation.

They go into the game tonight just three points from 17th-placed Nottingham Forest.
