Despite numerous criticisms and issues, Manchester United is on a streak of four matches without defeat in all competitions. They successfully advanced two rounds in the FA Cup, defeating Wigan and Newport. In the Premier League, after a hard-fought draw with Tottenham (2-2), the Mancunians delivered a thrilling performance against Wolverhampton, securing a 4-3 victory away from home. In the match against Wolves, Manchester United led 2-0 at halftime but lost their advantage in the second half, securing the win only in the seventh added minute with a goal from Maynu. After that game, Erik ten Hag praised Cobie Maynu and Rashford, who opened the scoring, but noted that conceding so many goals is unacceptable. Undoubtedly, defensive issues persist in the last five Premier League matches, the team consistently conceded at least two goals. It’s challenging to aim for a spot in the European competitions with such defensive statistics.
West Ham hasn’t lost in the Premier League since December 10th but frequently settles for draws, hindering their push for a top-five position as they currently sit in sixth place. In their last three matches, the Hammers drew against Bournemouth (1-1) at home, and the game was largely evenly contested. It’s worth noting that David Moyes’ team has been successful on the road throughout the season. They’ve gathered 17 points from 11 away matches, with only one defeat in the last five away games. The team excels at playing on the counter, efficiently capitalizing on their chances. Striker Said Benrahma won’t play today due to suspension.
