Match Preview: Manchester United vs West Ham

After having upset Man United’s
grudge-bearing rivals Liverpool at
Upton Park in the 5th game-week of
the Premier League, West Ham prepare for their trip to the Stretford End as they look to finish off Liverpool’s counterpart all fair
and square.

The Hammers climbed up to the 8th position in the league table on Sunday, above the likes of Liverpool, Tottenham, Everton and Manchester United.

The biggest spenders in the league
don’t look happy in the 12th place,
as Louis Van Gaal prepares to
deliver for all that has been spent
over the summer.

The Red half of Manchester has mostly been quiet this season, despite the arrival of the likes of Angel di Maria, Ander Herrera, Marcos Rojo, Daley Blind, Radamel Falcao and Luke Shaw.

The problem looks solely concentrated in their defense as the Red Devils look to find their second win the Premier League this season, when they welcome the Hammers on Saturday.

With the likes of Phil Jones and Tyler Blackett not available for selection, Man United could once more be vulnerable at the back against the attacking option of Sam Allardyce that includes the likes of Alex Song, Enner Valencia and Diafra Sakho.

Sam Allardyce surely relishes the
absence of a rigid defense in the Old
Trafford side, but must not fail to
consider the goal threat that the Red
Devils pose.

Louis Van Gaal might have failed to build proper forts at Old Trafford, but the Dutch surely has brought in the best weapons on earth.

Manchester United, despite having lost 5-3 to Leicester City at the King Power stadium on Sunday, displayed a plausible play upfront, with the likes of Angel Di Maria, Ander Herrera, Wayne Rooney and Radamel Falcao all in their best forms.
