Prediction:
Based on current form and stats, we expect a close contest with a final score of 2-1 in favor of Manchester United.
Manchester United likely to dominate possession and press high, exploiting West Ham’s defensive frailties. West Ham may adopt a low block and counter-attack strategy to leverage their physical midfield and wing pace.
Manchester United’s stronger form and home advantage combined with West Ham’s recent struggles make a United win the most probable. However, West Ham's capability for counter-attacking goals keeps an away win possible but less likely.
