At just the wrong time, a resurgent Manchester United visit London Stadium unbeaten in ten games to take on West Ham with both sides playing for huge stakes: The Red Devils are chasing a Champions League spot whilst for the Hammers, Premier League survival is at stake.
With Nottingham Forest taking on bottom side Wolves tomorrow night, West Ham will be desperate to pick up some points rather than see the ‘gap’ start to open again between themselves and the ‘safety’ of Forest in 17th position. Nuno has expressed concern over injuries that he feels will leave some players sidelined this evening, and his starting eleven will reveal all: Kidology or genuine injuries?
Our ‘best guess’ is that -providing the intel is correct and it is Pablo who misses out through injury – Nuno will make one change and strengthen the midfield that has looked porous against Chelsea and Burnley by the addition of Freddie Potts, pushing Fernandes further forward into a number 8 role. Which would mean the starting eleven looks like this:
West Ham United
Hermansen | Wan Bissaka, Mavropanos, Disasi, Diouf | Soucek, Potts, Fernandes | Summerville, Castellanos, Bowen(c)
