Manchester United have stumbled in the title race over the past few weeks and with each passing matchday, it looks like another year without the crown for the Red Devils. This makes their next assignment, a FA Cup tie against West Ham United, of immense importance. While it gives them a chance to continue in their race for winning a Cup, it also is an opportunity to get over the heart-breaking draw with Everton. Defence has been a problem for the Red Devils ever since the inception of the season and time and again it has faltered against pace. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer knows the Hammers are in fine form at the moment and it will take a special effort to get a win against the Londoners. Lionel Messi Pips Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar Jr to Win Best Men’s Player of the Decade Award by IFFHS.

Paul Pogba has been ruled out for few weeks with a thigh injury which is a massive blow for the hosts. Anthony Martial is set to replace the misfiring Marcus Rashford, who could do away with a rest. Bruno Fernandes and Edinson Cavani continue to drive Manchester United’s attack and off late Scott McTominay has also chipped in with the goals, which is a good sign for the team. Eric Bailly is not completely fit hence he had a real chance to start in the contest.

Jesse Lingard cannot face parent club Manchester United which means Jarrod Bowen will continue playing on the right. Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek’s partnership in midfield will continue with the latter having his red card wiped off by the FA. Andriy Yarmolenko is set to lead the Hammers’ attack and lining up behind him will be playmaker Manuel Lanzini.
