Match Preview

Louis van Gaal has warned Manchester United that nothing other than a win will do when they travel to West Ham United in the Barclays Premier League on Sunday.

United rose to third last Saturday with a 3-1 win over Leicester City, with fourth-placed Southampton losing at home to Swansea City the next day.

Van Gaal's team followed that up by coasting
to a 3-0 FA Cup fourth-round replay win over League Two outfit Cambridge United on Tuesday.

The Manchester United manager wants his side to continue their winning ways against a West Ham side who suffered a 2-1 defeat in September's reverse fixture at Old Trafford despite Wayne Rooney's red card.

"After we beat Leicester, we were third in the league, and after that we beat Cambridge and are in the next round,” Van Gaal said. "Now we have to continue and all players know this is true.

"It is not so easy because we have to play away in London against West Ham and it was a tough game in Manchester.

It shall not be easy but we want to continue and we have to win in London. "I am only satisfied at the end of the season because now to be third and in next round doesn't count. We have to play a lot matches and also Spurs and Arsenal are in our back, one point or two
behind.

A lot of matches to go and still three to go to the [FA Cup] final. That is our goal.

" Sam Allardyce bemoaned West Ham's injury problems ahead of the match, but urged his side to frustrate United.

"Man United have had some very good results recently and the beauty of them is the goalscoring ability in their squad," the West Ham manager said.

"Our aim is to limit that as much as possible. We need to be tactically astute and try to cause them a few problems.

" Allardyce has injury concerns over James Collins, Winston Reid, Guy Demel, Diego Poyet, Doneil Henry and Andy Carroll. Diafra Sakho will be available for selection after West Ham
were fined by FIFA for playing the Senegal striker during the Africa Cup of Nations after he had pulled out of the tournament with a back injury.

Van Gaal will again be unable to call upon Michael Carrick, who will miss the encounter against his former club due to a calf problem.
